[ih] WEBCAST TODAY – NSFNET 35th Anniversary Celebratory Event

[Joly MacFie]

The NSFNET is, of course, the missing link between the ARPANET and the
Internet as we know it today, and perhaps not so much celebrated as it
could be. Today's session should give insight on some of the vital
decisions that forged the program, and recognition of the people that made
them,
