Another good development yesterday in the fibre broadband project. As blogged Telecom put forward a couple of constructive proposals.

announced yesterday:

A group made up of lines companies and local fibre companies has been formed to support the Government's vision of introducing ultra-fast fibre broadband to New Zealand.

Vector Chief Executive Simon Mackenzie said that the NZ Regional Fibre Group brought together the collective wisdom and experience of several different regional operators with expertise in open access networks.
“We welcome the opportunity to submit on the Government's Broadband Investment proposal which will leap New Zealand to world class broadband.
This is also very exciting, and shows good leadership. Potentially lines companies have the ability to do some areas a lot cheaper than telcos.
Members of the New Zealand Regional Fibre Group include Vector, Aurora, Northpower, based WEL Networks, Unison, PowerNet, Christchurch City Networks, Network Tasman, and Velocity Networks.
That covers a fair bit of NZ!
