RE: [gnso-vi-feb10] So, what's best for consumers? Anyone? Bueller?

["Roberto Gaetano" <roberto@xxxxxxxxx>]

While I believe that the Doria/Mueller/Palage presents interesting cases, I
would be hesitant in focusing the debate, at this point in time, to just
this document. It would be interesting to work in "brainstorming mode" for
another few days, so that we have more examples, more business models, more
hypotheses, and once we have a richer scenario we can start discussing about
what are the good and the bad points of each model.
Just a suggestion.
Cheers,
R.
