Ahh. So their "just a subcontractor" of the "original cooperative
agreement"....
Then could you tell me why ANS is trying to get NEARNet to sign a contract
on a NSFNet T3 connection that you (NSF) bought? [This from John Rugo's
posting of last week].

WRONG. NSF's Cooperative Agreement was, is, and remains with Merit.
What the Division of Grants and Contracts approved was Merit's subcontract to
ANS. It is part of the boilerplate in every NSF award that the Foundation
must approve all subcontracts.
