ISPA welcomes new era for telecoms

ISPA welcomed the judgement in the High Court in favour of Altech and the VANS industry as a whole.

Does this mean they'll be lifting the Line Equivalence Charge from ISP's wishing to peer at JINX?

The charge for lines of 2mbit/s and less was dropped, but anything above that is still charged.

eg: 2-8mbit/s is R22,000 per month!
Thats just plain mad.

I think Ivy shot herself in her fat foot.

I think Ivy shot herself in her fat foot.

That would be imply that she was able to stay awake long enough to hold a gun AND pull the trigger.
Highly unlikely.

If she can stay awake long enough to put back all those doughnuts, she can stay awake long enough for her deputy to shoot her in the foot. Would hate to see her do any rigorous (or any) exercise for that matter. Might collapse the Union Buildings or cause Pretoria to declare a minor earthquake had occurred.

She held the gun and it slipped when she fell asleep perhaps?

I'm willing to believe that...
Or.. something like this

"I was busy including the clause in the legislation, but I fell asleep on the keyboard and had to send out the previous version in order to make the deadline.

I was watching cloverfield the other day... When the scene of the monster came round, i could not help thinking it looks just like Ivy, and the little creatures falling from its backside looked just like some of the Icasa bigshots...

wd altech.

 

[The_Unbeliever]

Good news... it is welcome.

Hopefully everybody concerned will now take a step in the right direction... and not just a jump to the left...

I'm not sure that this has much to to with the Altech decision, but the current plan is for the ELC to fall away from next year.

Check the hot topic in the news section. VANS can self provide!

Okay. Now the hard work starts. They need to get out there and build/expand their networks ASAP...
