Jeff has raised a very good point. I would like to apologise to the people organising the conference for making a comment without also providing an idea/contribution.
Please don't respond to Jeff, it only encourages him. Courtesy of Darrell Greenwood: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff makes the rules in his fantasy world.

[Added by WXW, he also posts as Brian Hollingsworth and Bob Davis] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- In addition to this, we also have some local content on Jeff, in the IDNO-DISCUSS archives, where him and I had a conversation regarding NZ's Internet infrastructure.

To INEGroup doing business in Chile, and having an Sbone connection to the Internet in Santiago. JW's a flake. If everyone here agrees to stop replying to him (or better yet, filter him), he'll soon get bored and go play in another sandpit. -- Andrew P. Gardner barcelona.com stolen, stmoritz.com stays.
