I can't help but interject here, that *everybody* should have access to metro ethernet-like services. There is no engineering or economic reason that we can't all have this kind of access for <$50/month. Cities around the world are implementing this stuff. It doesn't cost them the $2k/month that metro ethernet costs here. The reasons for this gigantic failure are politically-entrenched interests. It's within our collective power to alter that. I encourage people to let their remaining mayoral candidates know that this is a topic they want resolved in their favor. -- Russell Senior, President [email protected] _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
