Wow, congratulations and many thanks to both Ermanno and Mike Jensen for 
their contributions in our common endeavour in this group:

• Mike Jensen (South Africa) built some of the earliest networks to 
connect the nonprofit sector, and played a key role in establishing 
network connectivity for developing countries.
• Ermanno Pietrosemoli (Venezuela) led technical education of the 
Internet in dozens of countries in South America and Africa, and was 
instrumental in building Universidad de los Andes’ direct connection to 
the Internet backbone.
