Hey guys,
I am in the middle of organising a Geek Exchange Tour with Telecom Wholesale - an exchange, cabinet, cablepit etc and this is happening on the 19th from about 2pm ish onward.
We are not fussed if you are pro-Telecom or not, and our goal was that we can keep it frank and honest about exactly what and why Telecom are doing things, you will be welcome to bring camera's and or video and they are welcome to post honest feedback of what you thought of the trip.
At the conclusion of the trip, we have organised some Beer (including some Kingfisher of course) Pizza and an informal catchup with the Broadband Product managers from Wholesale, where you can ask them the hard questions.
Also this would be an Auckland trip, so you would need to be in the city on the day.
We only have 10 total slots available, and we wanted to have 5 spare in case anyone pulls out, but because I wanted to give the guys from other forums a go also, we will have 4 Positions each for GPforums, with 2 backup people in case anyone is sick / cancels. Based on how it goes, we may consider doing it again later, covering different elements, or introducing to different teams but no promises.
The tight timeframes would mean that we will have to get the names committed pretty sharply.
Of those that are:
1) Available in Auckland on the 19th from 2pm onwards
2) Would love to see an exchange etc
3) Are a geek / love DSL (see item 2)
In order to get selected, just reply that you are keen, and I will pick based on a combination of people with a reputation for "community spirit", a high number of posts per day, and my own random decision - if it becomes unwieldy we may have to put it to the vote.
I have chatted to pablo_d and he said this might be the fairest way to put it out there for those that were interested.
Cheers,
ADSLGeek
