[asterisk-biz] FCC: Telcos Must Interconnect VoIP

[Matthew Rubenstein]

interconnected with POTS service by telcos, even though the FCC doesn't
classify VoIP as a "telecom *service*":

	Does this affect Asterisk operators (eg. competing with TW)? Any
previous restrictions now lifted? Continuing restrictions not avoided
because this decision is TW-specific? Or was TW facing restrictions that
Asterisk operators haven't faced?
