Thank you Jack. I am glad to see someone doing something for their
beliefs instead of kicking WISPA in the chins for not doing it for them.
WISPA is here for all of you to interact and decide what and how you
want to represent yourselves and your industry. Jack knows that means he
can do something and is doing something. Way to go Jack. It is usually
only 4 or 5 of us within WISPA who actually do something to light a fire
under people's butts. I am glad to see you take the step this time.
That's called leadership people. Jack showed you how its done folks. If
you want change then make it happen. This was less work than complaining
about the problem and is infinitely more productive toward getting
something done about the issues that many have been talking about here
with regard to fears of inability to meet the demands of CALEA.

Dear Representative Stupak,
I'm writing to support your request on March 14, 2007 asking that the
FCC Commissioners consider a waiver from CALEA regulations for small
broadband providers.
In a nutshell, the costs of complying with the CALEA provisions are
far in excess of what small broadband providers can afford to pay. It
is poor government policy to allow the costs of CALEA compliance to
literally put small broadband providers out of business thereby
denying broadband Internet access to many rural Americans.
Do you plan to introduce legislation that directs the FCC to
reconsider their regulations and to consider the compliance costs when
regulating small Internet access providers?
Please advise me how I can further support your effort to retain
broadband Internet access service for rural Americans.
Thank you for your time, interest, and efforts.
Sincerely,
Jack Unger
P.S. - I am copying this email to the general email list maintained by
the Wireless Internet Service Providers Association (WISPA.org) to
help as many small ISPs as possible learn about and support your
efforts in their behalf. I will forward your response to this list.
