BT to court!) So the paper might make a noise, and CPW/TT will
just respond that they've been hampered in their plans by BT.

But all bad publicly is *bad* publicity. May kick them into doing
something.

method of accessing usenet. GG subscribers would be well advised get a
newsreader, say Agent, and a newsserver, say news.individual.net. These
will allow them: to see only *new* posts, a killfile, and other goodies.

Why is it BT's fault ?

Because it's always BTs fault, just like the inept way EasyNet
installed their equipment caused SKY problems, that was caused by BT
as well. It's allways easier to blame the big (non existent) company
now (& before anybody starts up about it being in existence you should
try working between different BT companies without breaking the
equivalence rules/licencing law)

be involved as CPW can't physically break into the exchange and do the
work itself, plus BT's engineers will be required to do any work on BT
kit.
Seems to be a two-sided affair though, with CPW forward selling accounts
which they don't have a fixed start point to be able to offer for when
the BB will go live.

Ive been with talktalk since the start of the "free" just back on after
being unable to connect since Friday, 5 calls to "technical support"
resulted in them telling me there was server maintainance and it would
be down for about 24 hours.

Precisely how does that make it BT's fault ?
Actually, they do do the work themselves. They like to pretend they don't of
course.
It's not BT's kit anymore is it ?
What's 2 sided about owning kit that works or not ?
