ICASA makes ADSL pricing decision

[codemonkey]

If ICASA operates like all other government departments, then we have no chance of hearing anything from them today. They probably stopped working at 15h30 and are having cocktails in the company pub.

afaik she and Nadia Bulbulia have now both accepted extended periods of 45 days with ICASA

Thanks dominic. Nice of someone to tell us.

Well, they're still answering the phones, that in itself is quite impressive for a government (albeit 'independent') department.

Might I kindly refer you to dominic's sig:
“Just because the word ‘independent' appears in ICASA's name, doesn't make it independent." - Lyndall Shope-Mafole (DG of Comms, or of similar importance).

Due Monday

Today is Monday

Hence the quotation marks.

Seriously - how hard is it to make a flipping announcement within the deadline that they themselves set?

 

[AntiThesis]

One of the ITWeb blokes says he's still waiting to hear and had Paris' personal assurance that he'd know today what was going on.

Someone poke Paris and give him a bit of a wake up.

 

[Lord Anubis]

Lol. They'll prolly announce the cap has been agreed upon as 3GB.

ICASA lies.

 

[krycor]

oh man.. i was desperate for a late afternoon anouncement

 

[Hunted]

Scenario: Telkom complains to Government: ICASA ruling = less filling in the Christmas Stocking this year.... Government catches a wakeup and squeezes ICASA... Result = Less for the Public, but more the gravy train....

 

[mccrack]

hmmm... it's Monday today and I haven't heard ICASA's announcement yet....where is it?

imminent ......

 

[hj2k_x]

Still nothing...As usual. We wait.

hmmm... it's Monday today and I haven't heard ICASA's announcement yet....where is it?

where is it, my preciousss, where isss itsss... <gollum>

Crime have got that crimebarometer site, mail of which I've received from Dubai... seems news have travelled far and wide, and because of this somebody's butts have been prodded seriously, and things've started to happen...

Why can't we do something like this, to expose the piss-poor state of telecomms in SA?

Ag no man... it's time to start playing dirty.

 

[RichardP]

LOL! .. I could have put money on ICASA's failure to deliver when the say.

 

[krycor]

should've have made a bet on htem not releasing it.

 

[supersunbird]

Dudes. Its the never starting story...

 

[AntiThesis]

I think why there are no regulations yet.

I am convinced they were guests of Telkom at the world cup finals. They are all overseas at the moment. Where?
