NBN. What's wrong with this diagram?

The Comms Alliance has released the first draft of their Options for the NBN (National Broadband Network) Architecture (in pdf), just in case you wanted to give them some feedback. Not a bad doc, especially when you consider that the options are endless. But it would have been nice to have seen it done in html, and some attempt made at running a forum, especially as we Aussies are now at the beginnings of taking down the silo walls.

The other diagrams in the doc are about right, when you consider that it's primary focus is linking from a (National) aggregation/transport domain to an end user via fibre. But it would have been nice to see this one taking both a content and global perspective, especially as there are some asp's like Moodle sitting around the global traps (and talking about bringing together their communities in "hubs"). Might even give Telsta some idea of what happens when they stop thinking content is just something pumped out to end users. (i.e. Foxtel)
