OT: VoIP <-> PSTN gateway operators in NZ
by Neil Simmonds 18 Feb '04

18 Feb '04

Hi, Sorry for the OT post, Is there anyone in NZ operating (in production, or close to it) a VoIP to PSTN gateway? Preferably SIP based? If so, could they email me, or email me a contact from the company?. Im looking for an allready established network rather than creating my own (expensive :o) Cheers Rob You could try iHug or WorldxChange They both have real customers on VoIP, their own soft-switches and PSTN connections.

NZNOG BGP'04 Wrapup
by Jamie Curtis 16 Feb '04

16 Feb '04

Hi all, After much delay we have managed to update the NZNOG conference website at: http://www.nznog.org We now have up all the slides which we were able to get hold of, some simple statistics on the network usage over the term of the conference and the photos which were taken during the conference. Apologies for the quality of the photos, we didn't have appropriate gear for the size of the venue, but most importantly we lacked competent photographers ! :) Enjoy ! Jamie

Of course you may recognise yourself in the following. ------- How many group/list posters does it take to change a light bulb? 1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs 27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs 53 to flame the spell checkers 41 to correct spelling/grammar flames 6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" 6 to condemn those 6 as anal-retentive 2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp" 15 know-it-alls who claim *they* were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is perfectly correct 156 to email the participant's ISPs complaining that they are in violation of their "acceptable use policy" 109 to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb group 203 to demand that cross posting to hardware forum, off-topic forum, and lightbulb group about changing light bulbs be stopped 111 to defend the posting to this group saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts *are* relevant to this group 306 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty 27 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs 14 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL's 3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group 33 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too" 12 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy 19 to quote the "Me too's" to say "Me three" 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ 44 to ask what is a "FAQ" 4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?" 143 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs" 1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again....

Re: Telecom and Jetstream

> So what? Your response would be the perfect Telecom response <read, > irrelevant>. The cost of buying and installing 2000 DSlams in NZ is not > likely to be different by more than a couple of percent to the cost of > installing 30000 DSlams in Mexico. The cost of copper cable is pretty much > the same anywhere. The difference in consumer pricing is the amount Telecom > takes as "profit" compared to other telcos... My message was not intended to be pro or anti Telecom. All I was suggesting is that out of 100,000,000 people only 3,500,000 use the Internet -- maybe there is something wrong -- what I was emplying is that we probably need 100Mbit connections running into our homes OR MAYBE people just don't need that 100Mbit connection. (using statistics; if 3.5 million of a population as big as Mexico's use the Internet, per person we have a much greater demand for innovation -- or not) My previous comments were more of a "serious sarcasim" aimed towards Telecom. I trust that makes sense. Anaru
