How I heard about Network Democracy:

Directly from Laurie Maak and Bob Carlitz.

My experience in this area:

I have been working on school networking/telecommunications issues for about 5 years. Coordinated the development of the California K-12 Network Technology Planning Guide which helped set the stage for development of local networking infrastructure and Internet connectivity in CA schools.

What I hope to learn:

To gain a better understanding of these complex issues. The discussion should assist in the forumaltion of Californi's position which we will be conveying to the FCC. I will be preparing information to send to schools to inform them and keep them apprised of the impact of universal services and advanced telecommunications.
