Here is the language from the bill:

`(2) GRANDFATHER PROVISION- Paragraph (1) shall not prohibit a State or local government or affiliated entity thereof from providing in any geographic area within the jurisdiction of such government any service that such government or entity was providing on the date of enactment of the Preserving Innovation in Telecom Act of 2005.'.

At a meeting this afternoon I brought up HR 2726. A woman attending from SD Public Library was unaware of it, and asked what it would mean for libraries that offer WiFi. My understanding is that any existing library would be grandfathered in, but no new services could be initiated. Is that what others have heard?
