Subject: Senate Commerce Committee reprive for broadcast flag,
net
neutrality decisions

Greetings Dave,

Perhaps begining to realize just how big a bite it has taken on
sooo
many contentious issues related to telecom reform, the Senate
Commerce
Committee hearing scheduled for today just adjourned.  The
Committee
had made it less than one-tenth of the way through its markup of
S.2686, the Senate's version of the telecom. reform bill.

The two concerns most dear to the technology community, 'net
neutrality' and 'broadcast flag' issues, weren't addressed, and
it
doesn't look like they will be until next week at the earliest.
