three projects for future networks for academia that goes beyond writing patches for the old one.

and the first thing that makes me wonder is why the players - countrywise are the same as 50 years ago. us::eu::japan. missing china.

anyhow the game began: us comes i with geni with an old acquaintance on board: bbn, bolt beranek and newman (remember imps and tips and arpanet?) europe calls it: future-internet adhere the bad habit of using a hyphen in the url. and japan also has something up and running, called new generation networking and universal communication. not sure if yoshihide suga meant that in his talk or something completely different.

the story as freeman is seeing it at cacm. he was involved in setting up geni.

btw: von neumann's "the computer and a brain", 1958 is now available at acm classic books, not quite yet ...
