Seems to me the time to have raised the issue of cooperative agreements
was when the solicitation was first issued. My copy of NSF-93-52 (the
vBNS, NAP, etc. solicitation) states the NSF intent for a cooperative
agreement from day one:
It is anticipated that this solicitation will result in two or more
separate five-year cooperative agreements between NSF and the
organizations and/or consortia of organizations chosen as NAP
Manager(s), RA, and vBNS Provider. It is also anticipated that
this solicitation will result in a number of four-year cooperative
agreements with organizations chosen as Regional Network Providers.
