No probs. It's up to everone here to decide. The offer is now open,
anyone can connect whenever they feel like. I'm not saying it has to
happen tomorrow.

In alot of cases, Sydney is the same. Most of the interest we have here
in NSW is regional for the DSL linking. Of course we'd have atleast one
WPOP hooked up for Sydney, with more later as the WPOP's bridge.

I thought this would be a good oppurtunity, since GHO is a backbone
node. It easily allows for one interconnect point that covers alot of
sites in Melbourne.

In relation to IP ranges, we have an IP plan which I am sure can be
looked at.

Or rather, let us know when you're ready. The offer is now there, anyone
is welcome to take it whenever they like. Having said that, if someone
know's of a better workable deal, let us all know!

Regards
