NBN–From problems to solutions

Yesterday I summarised the three primary public concerns, as I saw them, around the planned NBN Co. deployment. Today Andrew Colley summarised pretty much the same key points, so maybe it’s time to look at how NBN Co. may be able to address them. Just to re-iterate, the areas of concern are:

1. Pricing: or more importantly price flexibility,
2. Connectivity: or more importantly connection flexibility and
3. Openness: open interfaces, open databases, open standards.

I’m not going to document a complete architecture here to address everything, rather I intend to simply highlight each of these areas with some specific examples that were discussed at the Realising our Broadband Future Forum and possible solution paths for resolving them. As always, if you disagree with anything I say, please add a comment.

Since this is a large post, I have broken it up into several pages to make it easier to follow.
