The EU has released an schematic position paper on the ITRs http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=COM:2012:0430:FIN:EN:PDF.  I leave it to expert speakers of Brusselsian to explain how the language on traffic prices based on commercial negotiations in a free and fair marketplace fits with the ETNO proposal.  I've invited Luigi to speak in the CIR main session in Baku, so maybe we'll be able to probe this a little then if there's not been concrete pronouncements in the meanwhile…

And even more: If you introduce a "business class" you have to introduce a checkpoint to seperate business from eceonomy and this can be done only via content control and DPI and leads directly to censorship. Any comments?
