Hi Peter, "The 'technology-neutral' label comes from WiMAX, and is code for retaining exclusive area licensing." Would a different label cause the situation to be any better? Perhaps WiMAX's Ethernet roots accounts for the connotation that is implied by "neutral." You think? -- ftth, you noted: "having regulators pick the technologies rubs many people the wrong way. It's in some ways a "back to the future" approach of purpose-built spectrum silos." Such would be consistent with how the regs have decided on which of the wireline technologies would flourish in the nation's public rights of way, which one could say is, in many ways, akin to r.f. spectrum, no?
