I agree.

Bevan - is there anything more you can share about why you are so cagey
about this?

Telstra were quite open about the fire at Warrnambool exchange, and from
what I can see quite often when things go wrong elsewhere in the world,
RFIs are made public.

What's the 'responsible forum' for this? Why are data centres a special
case of responsible disclosure (i.e. tell the operator first giving them
time to rectify, then publish so others can learn lessons).
