Subject: [ISOCNZ-COUNCIL] Telecom Update Date: Wed, 30 Jun 1999 12:23:19 +1200 From: "Sue Leader" Reply-To: Exe.Dir(a)isocnz.org.nz To: isocnz-l(a)isocnz.org.nz CC: isocnz-members(a)isocnz.org.nz Greetings all You may remember that ISOCNZ was waiting until we met with Telecom representatives and got some core questions answered before taking a position on the Internet Access Pricing Changes/0867 number introduction. After a series of delays Telecom managed to get the right group of people together at the same time and place, and the ISOCNZ delegation met with those representatives on last Friday (June 25). The meeting was productive, with answers being provided to almost all our questions. In addition, ISOCNZ was able to negotiate some favorable outcomes for our stakeholders. So why the delay in letting you know? Telecom undertook to supplement our notes of the meeting with written responses by close of day yesterday (Tuesday 29). As soon as these arrive we will make them available on the web-site. In the meantime we have decided to publish the written questions which ISOCNZ provided to Telecom on June 13 - fifteen days before the meeting. These questions were compiled from questions supplied by our stakeholders, primarily via the isocnz-l list. As the timeframe dragged out, the Council took the opportunity to refine the questions into subject groupings which would allow the topics to be more easily covered during the space of the meeting. Telecom had these questions several days in advance, as well as the original list of 33 questions. Both sets of questions are linked from: http://www.isocnz.org.nz/issues.html On a happier note - the Media Releases page has been updated recently and includes information on the appointment of two NZers to International Internet Governance Bodies - Peter Dengate Thrush and Andy Linton. The media didn't really pick up on this story and I felt we needed to celebrate their achievements - to read all about it - please reload the Media Releases page at: http://www.isocnz.org.nz/pressrels.html Cheers Sue Sue Leader - Executive Director ISOCNZ (Internet Society of New Zealand Inc) Exe.Dir(a)isocnz.org.nz Voice: +64-4-801-6256 http://www.isocnz.org.nz Postal: Level 1, (e)-Vision Centre, 282 Wakefield St, Wellington "ERROR 406: file corrupt: config.earth -- reboot universe?
