Fibre to the home UK - Fibrevolution

After many years waiting, writing and speaking about the subject, it appears Fibre To The Home has finally made it into the mainstream news. So, in order to help others who may not have been involved in campaigning for FTTH for the last decade, this blog has been set up to try to keep all those who need to know about FTTx up to date with developments (or not if BT and BIS have their way), opinions, current thinking, functional projects etc.
