[MLB-WIRELESS] Melbourne Wireless Network and Commercial Network

[darrend at ndpgroup.com.au]

Guys, we are satisfied with the current non-commercial definition as 
released by the ACA last month. Under those definitions we are 
non-commercial, and as such are exempt from the carrier license 
requirement of the Telco Act.
BTW this was also the opinion of the Attorney Generals office when I spoke 
to them last week, so I think we're pretty safe on this front! 
The only issue that really remains, is exactly where do we fit in as far 
as law enforcement is concerned. This is a matter for the AG's Dept, and 
they will be getting back to me in the next few weeks to discuss further. 
FYI their main concern relates to internet connectivity, so atm we are 
considered a low risk anyway....
That being said, Karun, we'd certainly be interested in anything your 
father has to say on the subject anyway... so thanks.

Hey Karun,
If you can come up with a definitive answer from your father - whether
or not it endorses what Melbourne Wireless is trying to do - we owe him,
and you, a debt of gratitude.
