I'm not sure how many CANARIE people generally come to NANOG. A  
better bet is to raise the issue with Bill St Arnaud and see what he  
says.

As for other educational networks, I kind of doubt that NANOG is the  
right audience, since anybody there from an NREN is probably a  
researcher rather than a policymaker. But you never know, I guess.  
There are lightning talk slots open if people want to stand up and  
speak to the crowd.
