 From what I see, that would have been an improvement. Development of 
the current proposal seems to have started with the outcome and worked 
back from there.

As a rural, though not particularly remote, Australian I'm worried. The 
copper won't last forever. When it finally gives up the ghost, will it 
be replaced:
- with fibre?
- with copper?
- at all?
I fear that I'll be left relying on wireless for all of my 
communications. That might seem ridiculous, but our current government 
is barking mad on the issue (IMHO).
