Project Advisory Committee

Substantial progress has been towards
reaching the goals of the project. A
volunteer effort led by Doug Gale has already taken over 25 oral histories of
individuals who played key roles in the creation of the Internet. As part of the NSFNET 20-Year Anniversary
funding was obtained to engage four
professional oral historians and four film crews to record eight group oral
histories, involving almost 50 participants, the day before the Anniversary
event began. An increasing volume of
paper-based material has been collected.
However, the scope and magnitude of the
effort involved is beginning to exceed the capabilities of a volunteer
organization. A permanent institutional
home, staffed by professional archivists, needs to be found. To help the project navigate this transition,
a Project Advisory Committee has been created to guide the future of this
effort:
- Dr. Vint Cerf
- Dr. Kenneth M. King
- Ms. Ann Obeay
- Dr. Glenn Ricart
- Dr. Douglas VanHouweling
- Mr. Al Weis
- Dr. Steve Wolff
