Very High Speed Strategy in France 24 April 2008 - France to require apartments to come wired PARIS: The French government said Thursday that it planned to require builders to install fiberoptic cables in new apartment buildings to increase the introduction of fast broadband Internet. As part of a proposal to be voted on by Parliament "before the summer," the government will seek to make fiber-optic cabling a requirement for all construction projects of 25 or more apartments, said Luc Chatel, a government spokesman. The proposed law should allow all network operators access to buildings, Chatel said. Operators should agree among themselves whether and how to share local neighborhood switching nodes, and the government will leave it to French telecommunications regulator Arcep to deal with competition issues that go beyond building access, Chatel said. http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/04/24/technology/fiber.php
