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:
claudius.roel...@hostpoint.ch 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): http://www.inside-it.ch/frontend/insideit?_d=_article&site=ii&news.id=18042 http://www.inside-channels.ch/frontend/insidechannels?_d=_article&site=ic&news.id=19089 http://www.inside-channels.ch/frontend/insidechannels?_d=_article&site=ic&news.id=21127 http://www.inside-channels.ch/frontend/insidechannels?_d=_article&site=ic&news.id=21545 - Lawsuit has been put back, so that the WEKO may start working (again german): http://www.inside-channels.ch/frontend/insidechannels?_d=_article&site=ic&news.id=21706 - Interpolation at the National Council by Natalie Rickli (SVP) Markus -- Hostpoint AG | The Data Residence | St. Dionysstrasse 31 | Postfach | CH-8640 Rapperswil-Jona Tel +41 844 040404 | Fax +41 844 090909 | www.hostpoint.ch _______________________________________________ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
