Resolution 94-27: Commendation to Steve Wolff
The Board of Trustees of the Internet Society resolved unanimously to extend
its thanks and sincerest appreciation to Steven Wolff for his many
contributions to the Internet community while serving as Director of the
Networking Division of the national Science Foundation from 1987 to 1994.

transformed the Internet from an activity serving the particular goals of the
research community to a worldwide enterprise which has energised scholarship
and commerce in dozens of nations. The personal leadership of Dr Wolff, often
under conditions of public controversy, has been an indispensable ingredient
in surmounting a daunting array of technical, operational and economic
challenges.

His extraordinary commitment to the growth and success of the Internet
reflect the highest standard of service tot he networking community and
command our respect and admiration.
