Why Europe is leading USA on next generation Internet (NGI)

["Bill St.Arnaud" <bill.st.arnaud@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Kevin:

I always bristle when I see the expression Next Generation Networks (NGN).
This is an ITU acronym and represents everything we don't want in a next
generation Internet (NGI)

In any event participants to your workshop may be interested in my
presentation at the eChallenges conference today where I claim that Europe
is ahead of the US in terms of developing NGI
