I also second MJ and Alex. Sideshow *expose* are really sweet to the ears. The much anticiapted hype has made some people think the President was duped in to signing another 'blank cheque' I think it is prudent we continue monitoring the progress made in bringing the fibre home. The Somali Pirates didn't hijack this as word is going round the SEACOM cable has been delayed due to piracy on the HOA. Patience, will make 8 weeks look like an hour! 2009/6/29 Gakuru Alex <alexgakuru.lists@gmail.com>
All,
Teams Policy Position: For the record, on this issue I agree with Michael Joseph 100 per cent. Though 'expose' are ever so sweet, care we don't over-burn selves with non-issue side shows..
Alex
I think the President was witness to the official arrival of the final stretch of the Teams cable. I don’t think anyone said that he commissioned the cable as obviously it needs to tested and go through a period of stabilization and powering. This will take some time. I do not have the most accurate figure yet but it’s about 8 to 10 weeks before handing over to Teams for acceptance testing.
Regards
Michael

good qtn MM.
In some forums, they are saying the President was duped again - and officially opened another "blank". We need to know when or if this new
is now pumping packets/data.
And I dont think such data falls under the (in?) famous " Official secrecy Act"...
walu.

Hi history was made on 12th June when the fibre landed - and it threatens to open up the region like the railway did in 1900's... Special congrats to Dr Bitange Ndemo and all those who contributed to this revolution . the ict terrain will never be the same again -EVER
the next step is the light and the byte. when will the first byte land here on the fibre?
cheers Muriuki Mureithi
