[kictanet] Fwd: [Skunkworks] Do commercial web portals andsitesfall into Content Service Provider category?

Wed Sep 23 20:33:55 EAT 2009

Robert,
I will check the sites.  More important, please go a head and launch. In
tomorrow's CCK meeting I shall introduce a regime for SMEs where you
simply register with CCK and you pay nothing as long as you file returns
every year.  We then establish some threshold upon which you must pay a
licence fee.  Encourage as many folks as possible.  We must fight foreign
content with all our power.

Regards

Ndemo.
