FYI, USC/ISI has create the Postel Center for Experimental Networking (PCEN) to carry forward Jon's stewardship of the Internet, to perform "Network research in service to the Internet community."

Further information on the center, and how you can help contribute to its endowment to support scholars and students in fulfilling this mission can be found at:

FWIW, his birthday was August 6, a day I prefer to use to celebrate his legacy to the Internet. :-)
