[ih] Hauben, R. (1998). A study of the ARPANET TCP/IP Digest and of the role of online communication in the transition from the ARPANET to the Internet.

[Greg Skinner]

FYI, in case anyone had trouble accessing Ronda Hauben’s study, visit the footnote below. [1]  Also, I’d like to point out, in light of the 40th anniversary of the ARPANET/MILNET logical split (4 October 1983), the study contains some of the difficulties Mike Muuss [2] experienced after the split took place.  There were quite a few problems with routing that affected other services, such as email.  Others, even Jake Feinler, contributed to the discussion. [3]
