Sure, ban me. It's not like I ever helped anyone with a technical issue or gave insights in to how stuff works or shared things completely unrelated to what I'm setting up here. Totally makes sense that an arbitrary deadline will work, considering I don't even know myself how long some things will take.
Going back to a self-imposed sabbatical for the time being - I gotta get ready to head to KL tonight anyway. I'll next post about Hayai when I have something worth posting, otherwise I may still pop in from time to time to, you know, help people. Ciao
Also, Sanke:
1. You're not *supposed* to be able to see infrastructure, infrastructure is *supposed* to be as invisible as possible - I'm not sure what you're expecting to see. and I seem to recall most of the people here were telling me that if we did any overhead cabling, they wouldn't take the service. I don't know if you were one of those people or not, but since you're so vocal about not having yet received service, yet you're also vocal about not using your cable op, so I have to give you all new stuff. Sure, "as the crow flies", it's maybe 2km or so but we can't roll out to you without rolling out to everyone else in between you and us first - unless you'd prefer we threw the cable from building to building as the others do, of course, then maybe we could do things as quickly as the cable guys. Instead of complaining, help me help you.
2. You've asked and I've told you that I'd like to organize a date and time for several people to come see a connection - if I'm going to bug a customer to allow some strangers into his house then I'd like to do that as few times as possible. Let me know a time (Friday or after, I'm out of India until 17th) and I'll happily demonstrate *something*.
3. This relates to #2. I've said publicly to people to contact me to organize a time, but you're one of maybe 2 or 3 people who have responded. I'd have imagined there would be more people than that wanting to see a connection delivering what we're promising.
Please, help me help you. Get in touch and help me organize something, even if it's only copper (it'll show what people can reasonably expect if they're like the majority who live in areas not yet covered by fiber). You want me to show you the spots where we've blown fiber underground recently while we're at it?
