Internet2 and National LambdaRail To Merge

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the fattest-pipes dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Ars Technica has the story on the rapproachment of the two main US providers of high-speed networks to academic and research institutions: Internet2 and National LambdaRail have agreed to merge. And they're moving quickly, after tussling over the details of such an agreement for more than a year. The two groups have decided to put final merger documents before their respective boards by April 20, with merger completion to take place by June 29."

    Who gives a flying fuck about this? What of value is on Internet2 or National LambdaRail?

    Dude, It's Internet2-on-rail. It's a major buzzword and hype innovation. Just look at the good it did to Ruby!
