The Internet Society’s latest RFC, entitled “The Internet is for Everybody,” is an inspirational call to arms: Free the Subnet 255!
Internet is for everyone – but it won’t be if it cannot keep up with
the explosive demand for its services, so we must dedicate ourselves
to continuing its technological evolution and development of the
technical standards the lie at the heart of the Internet revolution.
Let us dedicate ourselves to the support of the Internet Architecture
Board, the Internet Engineering Steering Group, the Internet Research
Task Force, the Internet Engineering Task Force and other
organizations dedicated to developing Internet technology as they
drive us forward into an unbounded future. Let us also commit
ourselves to support the work of the Internet Corporation for
Assigned Names and Numbers – a key function for the Internet’s
operation.
(Thanks, Katie!)
