Close! But no cigar.
Although IOPS communicates with NRIC through the CNRI-based IOPS
coordinator (Ira Richer) who earns that by attending their meetings,
NRIC is actually planning on contacting around 50 ISPs, Telcos
doing ISP-like stuff, some of the larger vendors as well as some
industry groups - all independently.
