I suspect to see that ARIN does a good enough job that NSI does not have
to worry about address allocation showing up on their doorstep again.  And
I am not kidding.

With some structural changes that are happening, domain names may be an
interesting business.  But addresses are not.  Address allocation is the
kind of pain in the butt that belongs in a non=profit stewardship, hence
ARIN.  So I suspect that NSI just wants to see that the handover is
clean and successful.

I hope that he may want to help see ARIN off on a sound business footing.
He is a successful COO of an orgainzation that has ARIN-like duties.  So
one hopes he will provide some business guidance.

But, in truth, I have no idea what Donald Telage's goals and concerns are,
as I have not spoken with him.  So we're all guessing here.

If you know anybody else with a megabuck or so to spare for a good cause,
I suspect that NSI would not be jealous.
