  • Very interesting morning here at #bduk industry day. Looking forward to the pilot overviews. But why only 3? #
  • Would be great to get the kml file RT @nick_appleyard: #bduk Ooooh. I love a good map mashup. Masts, pipes and trees all in navigable 3D. #
  • It’s obvious that infra sharing would help deepen broadband penetration - we need to apply this to real UK case studies. #bduk #
  • It will be awhile before the reg changes RT @nick_appleyard: #bduk New overhead lines are a possibility, subject to a change of regs. #
  • So much talk about ducts, but not masts. Infrasharing #bduk #
  • Now starting to dive into the details of the superfast broadband pilot. #bduk #
  • Focus of UK superfast broadband pilot (#sfb) is on rural and hard to serve areas where markets will #fail #bduk #
  • Superfast bb has a potential throughput of over 20mbps no upper limit and upgradeable. #bduk #sfb #
  • #bduk is looking at the industry to provide data on the actual economics of #sfb deployment and operations in hard to reach areas #
  • Key to motivating ISPs:address opex issues in nga business models. requires policy and tax exemptions? Plus low acquisition costs. #bduk #
  • #bduk pilot funding is for capex, not operations. #
  • Superfast bb projects must be ambitious!! Market focused vs tech focused testing. Show us the money!!!! #bduk #
  • #bduk superfast bb pilots need to show a roadmap in terms of services and scalability. Eg IPTV, iTV, etc #
  • Key is not only to deploy but prove u can operate the superfast broadband pilot. #bduk anyone want to work with us? ;) #
  • #bduk q: can u be more specific about what is superfast bb? A: symmetric will become mandatory. More to follow. #
  • #bduk q: what are the criteria for uneconomic areas? A: no answer… Yet. But really: pop density, geo issues, projected demand indicators #
  • #bduk there is a myth around download limits… Vtesse speaks up #
  • #bduk pilots boil down to business and market validation upstream of deciding whether and how much to subsidise broadband. #
  • Wrapping up now at #bduk. Lots of work ahead for industry. #
