Hi yeah,
Sorry for the radio silence on my end about this. I'm combing through my
email/notes now to try to get the latest.
More soon,
April

so President Obama wants the FCC to preempt state laws that restrict
community and municipal "braodband" initiatives. there are 20 states
that do this now; it's mostly the result of ALEC lobbying on behalf of
cable companies to pass a suite of anti-competitive laws back
around 2005.
in any event, this is a major signal that the funding environment
might
soon open. so it's great we're meeting to soon to chat the
present/future.
if anyone wants a bit more context into CA's awkward and weak
restrictions on municipal fiber, prod me to explain !
my best,
april
