On one hand you say "we're not big enough" but then you spend all the time making grand plans suitable for countries many, many times bigger and wonder why they don't work. Break that behaviour. Group together, solve THIS problem.

That's been my problem with the "carrier-neutral" arguments as well.

The industry here just isn't big enough to have enough degrees of separation from one vested interest to another to build anything truly neutral.

That's my vested interest opinion anyway ;)

Need to get a non-carrier to build. Equinix, Global Switch, etc are non-carrier and very neutral (they charge everyone!). Maybe someone needs to tap Bevan at NextDC on the shoulder and ask nicely if they can build in Auckland? MMC
