Gee, I don't know why Stephen saw fit to post the entire webpage. I'm 
tempted to post the other side of the story in full as an 'equal 
time' on Link, but instead I'll just suggest that the govt is 
spinning in its own project mess [remember the Customs fiasco? Same 
minister.]. For an alternate perspective, please consider:

and specifically:

pssst: they are signing contracts for a project without a stable 
design. Are you happy your tax dollars are being spent on media 
programs for something that may never make it out of the box? I'm not.
