    Toby, 
    
    I don't know Jane Ullman and so can't answer most of what 
    you are asking.  The information that I have on RAINS is just 
    a little more than what is on the web at
    http://security.ece.orst.edu/oregon-rains/html/Oregon-RAINS-1.0.htm
    
    RAINS stands for Regional Alliance for Infrastructure and Network Security.
    I believe it's a post 9/11 effort to organize public and private concerns 
    about high-tech security needs.  The missions, as stated on the web are: 
    1) contribute to our national defense, by helping to mobilize 
       public/private solutions to critical security problems; 
    2) provide a needed boost to the Oregon economy.
    
    It is housed in the Oregon Economic and Community Development Department 
    http://www.econ.state.or.us/ and there is a little more info there. 
    OECDD is hosting the June 6th Town Hall on Cybersecurity so this is 
    the connection between the Town Hall and the Cybersecurity Showcase.
    I posted to CRIME since people may be interested if this is an 
    opportunity to interact with Richard Clark. 
    
    Others on CRIME may know more.
