It always striked me that a programme as popular as "BBC Click online",
never showed up at an ISOC (INET) or IETF meeting, but went to meetings
where the Internet is made (Internet World, CeBit,...)

So... The big contracts are pulled. Nodays, the "civilian" pull is pretty
big, so this isn't a full stop. I mean, linksys care far more about what the
buyer thinks at Wallmart than the D.O.D.
But at some level, this (proposed) string pulling will hurt network
advancement.
So its worth developing a paid ad campaign, but hopefully most if not all
the media should be on the web itself. Of course, a paper sack of unmarked
bills always helps when dealing with professional polititians.
This is totally a hardcore "I told you so" issue. I hope I'm wrong, but if
it plays out badly you will think; "Dad-burn-it! he was right back in 2003!".
