[AusNOG] Fibre / conduit maps

[Damien Gardner Jnr]

DBYD themselves don't *have* any specific data do they? They only know
which service providers have registered an interest in your region.  They
then send your request off to those registered providers, and those
providers send you the data they have.  If you want records updated, you'd
need to contact the specific provider.

Also, keep in mind that if you want Telstra data, you need to make sure you
select your reason as doing work, not planning to do work.  If you're
planning to do work, they will only fulfil one DBYD request, and any
further requests you need to pay for, otherwise they simply don't send you
any data. (One wonders where the liability falls if they failed to send you
cabling maps, and you then put a backhoe though a Telstra conduit...)

We rode on the winds of the rising storm,
 We ran to the sounds of thunder.
We danced among the lightning bolts,
 and tore the world asunder
