        I think the ILECs got this part right: provide a passive NIU on the outside wall, which forms a natural demarc that the fiber owner can test to. If an L2 operator has active equipment, put it inside--and it would be part of the customer-purchased (or -leased) equipment when they turn up service.
Yes, but that means the ISP has to drill holes in walls *and push fiber jumpers through them*; I'm not at all happy with that idea.
Why not? Someone will have to. Owen
