Hot Line and e-mail

[MOHRINGJ%ESVAX at dupont.COM]

I agree with Rayan Zachariassen's interpretation of the quoted text.


            "Traffic between mid-levels should be restricted to
        research or academic purposes, or to direct
        administrative support of such efforts. Organizations
        whose connection to the internet is sponsored by a
        FRICC agency can use the network in support of the
        sponsored activities. Traffic whose content is solely
        commercial is not acceptable. ..."


  Being familiar with the Specific (?) statements the government is known for, I
believe they used this entire dissertation to simply say;
 "NO commercial Advertising!"
Whereas, a facility supporting the R&D community, even if it is a commercial
endeavor, is acceptable.  In many cases, until a resolution is found to a
problem, research is slowed, if not halted.  It would be our responsibility not
to use the proposed e-mail facility unless the above situation were in effect.

These opinions are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of my superiors
and/or subordinates.
