Hi

We have been following this thread, and since some of you seem to be interested 
in participating in an effort against these actions by SWITCH, we wanted to 
point out that a group of ten Swiss hosting providers including us are already 
fighting this. While our group is financially involved, we have also collected 
signatures from about 50 other providers who just want to express their 
disapproval of these happenings without getting financially involved. So, if 
you're interested in any kind of action regarding this, I guess it'd make sense 
to coordinate with us. Feel free to contact Claudius Röllin who coordinates on 
our side:

This recent mailing by SWITCH is by far not the only thing to be concerned 
about. It's really a long story, but here's a short summary of what has been 
going on so far:

- round table led by SIMSA without any results

- Lawsuit at Handelgericht Zürich regarding the unfair preference of switchplus 
on the SWITCH website, some reading here (sorry german):

- Lawsuit has been put back, so that the WEKO may start working (again german):

- Interpolation at the National Council by Natalie Rickli (SVP)
