Washington Update

Note: Prior to EDUCAUSE's official formation in July 1998, 
plans were underway to ensure that the organization maintained 
an effective policy presence in Washington, D.C. In early 
June FARNET merged with then-Educom's Networking and Telecommunications 
Task Force (NTTF). The merged FARNET/NTTF organization will 
act as the networking policy arm for EDUCAUSE.
