Sadly, pioneers of the first generation of Internet technology are dying
off. Frank Heart developed the first IMP. I remember IMP's from
college. (Basically the first router.)

"The machine was built during nine frenetic months. Just before Labor
Day in 1969, two members of the team flew to California to install the
first machine — roughly the size of a refrigerator and weighing more
than 900 pounds — at the University of California, Los Angeles. A few
weeks later, the second I.M.P. went in, at Stanford Research Institute
(now SRI International in Menlo Park, Calif.), and a computer network
was born."

At SELF this month, ICEI group (Internet Civil Engineering Institute)
asked for people to help with important internet infrastructure projects
because many of the responsible people are over 70 now.

They have a plan to mentor people based on their interests.
Being younger is an asset.
