Cohousing-L Mailing List: Be your own Telephone Co?

[Joe Gotobed via chyba (jgotobed]

I think I've seen mention on this list that soome neighborhoods have
done their own telephone service (Commpetative Access Provider). Is it
economical?

Should we phone a phone switch in the Comon House along with the Network
switch and server?

Advice & stories please.
