Ah, thank you. Now I feel we are on the same page. The nightcoder- talking to him is something I was not considering so far, but now am. Could we also talk a bit more about the problem I was trying to get around to - how do you solve the se

Agreed. You may want to see another comment I've made where I would be ok if they can explain the delay with a valid reason for it - personal reasons/infrastructure issues/unexpected complexity. The basic point you are making is that if the

This article is implying that ATT lied to FCC about their involvement in the GV rejection decision. This is noted here: http://techcrunch.com/2009/07/29/att-dont-blame-us-for-the-i... Additionally, there are no sources to back up the clai

What I've never understood about this situation is the fact that the list, apparently, only contains names to identify people. Someone would have thought that in a country of 300m and a world of 6b, there would be multiple people with the s
