About time!
Hmm, maybe, maybe not. Behind the corporate-speak, the only thing I can garner is that things are unlikely to stay the same.
True of everything.
Be careful what we wish for.
In New Zealand the incumbent telco fought tooth and nail to avoid infrastructure being split from its sales arm. It happened anyway. Some would say that the split in NZ has been a major success.
Best decision ofcom has made yet?
OR should be a non profit limited company mutually owned by all the providers using their services, in the same way that the internet exchange points such as LINX, LoNAP and AMS-IX are owned by those using their services.
Common sense from a quango? Whatever next!
