@ ARIN is not an extension of NSI/SAIC. Both NSI and SAIC are private
@ companies owned by their shareholders. ARIN is being created as a
@ 501(c)6 organization which is not owned by anyone at all and which
@ is controlled by its members in accord with its charter.

Will the people from NSI/SAIC be resigning from that
company to start ARIN ?

Will NSI/SAIC still be funding ARIN ?

What will the financial ties be ?

What is the relationship of ARIN to Bechtel and Genuity ?

Why aren't any small companies represented ?
Why is it always the same people ?

Why can't ARIN be built from the grass roots ?
