[AusNOG] 10/10Mbps service in Cairns

[Alex Moorhouse]

Dropping CVC sounds good James, also why can't we stop using and paying
Telstra to host nbn equipment in their exchanges. Do an 8 POI plan, put
them in open datacentres such as NextDC and Equinix, that way providers can
easily and cheaply connect to the nbn network.  This would increase
competition dramatically because smaller companies can afford to integrate
their equipment nationally as oppose to the current situation where only
large companies can have national coverage and smaller companies need to
use an aggregator. This would mean that prices would be cheaper for
consumers and the quality of service would be higher as bandwidth would be
much cheaper to buy, meaning much less contention also.
