Peter Tseronis was relaxing at Bethany Beach, Del., nearly two years ago, when he received an e-mail from his office.He admits he shouldn’t have been checking his BlackBerry while on a family vacation, but the message had come from the top echelons of the Education Department, where he is director of network services in the office of the chief information officer.
Scrolling through the message, he found that the department’s executives had passed the e-mail down to the chief information officer, who sent it to the director of information technology. It traveled through a few more accounts, finally landing in Tseronis’ inbox.
The message informed Tseronis that he had been named Education’s transition manager for IPv6, the nascent successor to the current IP version.
“It was like, ‘Pete, I think this is your area.’ And I’m like, ‘IPv6? I’ve heard of it, but what?’ ” said Tseronis, recalling his reaction to the e-mail.
