Some of the ex-DSIR people might be fun to have along -- these folks were doing serious vendor-independent networking back when nobody much else knew what it was, and developed the Ace/Network Dynamics/Securicor 3net/Allied Telesyn routers which many ISPs used for many years.

The key guy at Allied Telesyn is the General Manager, Geoff Peck. He was deeply involved in all of the above which evolved out of the DSIR National Computer Network developments in the late 70s.
