[AusNOG] Long live our new Communications Minister

[Skeeve Stevens]

Personally... I believe Turnbull was hamstrung by Abbott.  I think he would
have been a far far better Comms Minister without Abbotts interference.

Let's see if he remedies some of the outstanding issues:

- NBN
- ACMA
- Data Retention
- Site Blocking
- New one where they tell you how to design your network
