Re: I met with one of them

Interestingly enough, Dynamic City, the company behind the UTOPIA project in Utah, made an offer to build the network on the city's dime so they could retain bother ownership and control. They refused it because they didn't want to front the money.

So... basically, they want to have a network they control without spending any money. I'm surprised any company would accept that offer. As much as I like muni fiber, I'm wondering what Palo Alto thinks they're doing.
