->Ahh. So their "just a subcontractor" of the "original cooperative
->agreement"....
I don't know why you use the quote marks, since you're not quoting me.
->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].
I don't think there's any pressure there. If NEARNet wants ANS' "commercial"
traffic, ANS wants 'em to say so in writing. NSF doesn't own the gateway,
but we've specified that R&E usage is not to be compromised.
