We started work on a response to the FCC NOI requesting feedback as to
future broadband bandwidth requirements for the USA early this
morning.

I am unfamiliar with the processes by which Starlink was disqualified
from the RDOF?, and a little out of date as to current performance. It
is very clear they are aiming for 100/20 speedtest performance and
frequently achieving it.

A drafty draft is here, and some of the language is being toned down
by popular request. (the pre-readers were lucky! I cut the cuss-words
out) There is only one joke in the whole thing. I'm slipping!.

I have some starlink info contained in appendix B so far, but I would
prefer not to cite my own long term plot as I did, and  also cite
others that have a good latency measurement, I like the 15s irtt plots
I have seen gone by. If you have research about starlink you would
like me to cite in this context, please comment on the link above!

The NOI is the first link, and it helpe me, actually, to start with
the FCC commissioners' comments at the end, rather than read through
the whole thing. Not that I would not welcome more folk submitting
themselves to that...
