    Well according to the story at
    http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/finance/2001/0725/fin7.htm ,

    ESAT feel they have supplied more data than other companies regarding their the performance of telecoms operators towards their customers!! As a result the ODTR delayed the publication of the stats!

    Is there any way that ESAT could come out looking shamblers!!! Surely not!!

    No I think Esat come out looking quite well. The ODTR have failed again to complete something on time of course (where have we heard this familiar mantra before). I'm now convinced we need a new regulator, the management of the ODTR leaves a lot to be desired.

    esat did the whole industry a great service by enabling the postponement of the publication of this data.
    The whole programme was (and still is) an ill-defined poorly managed programme, run at a substantial cost to all involved, that in the end produced data which cannot be compared across the participating operators.

    The ODTR was, of course, going to publish this regardless whether any of the data was comparable or not.

    But the important thing is that Etain got her photo in the paper again.

    ...and what a photo... biggrin.gif

    Still, it isn't a bad thing that the DTR has a public media profile. It ensures the whole issue of telecoms and the internet stays in the limelight.

    We should be cheering for this sort of profile stuff. It will mean a build up to the seminarforumconferencemeeting in August, and IOffL will be seen as the group to bring the whole thing to a head. It's a major achievement to get all of the parties together at one event to discuss the internet from a consumer viewpoint - the industry does this pretty regularly from a business perspective.
    It's never too late to have a happy childhood.
