Dave,

1.  This does not quite address the issue of naked DSL for me.  I thought
the recent decision was that Bell South did not have to offer naked DSL.

2.  If this is that decision then one would assume that the FCC was making
the leap that anyone getting naked DSL would get VOIP and that VOIP was a
"voice service".

I would like to hear in layman's language what this means!

directly address the primary issue raised by BellSouth, we grant
BellSouths petition to the extent described in this Order.

"Specifically, applying section 251(d)(3)  of the Communications Act
of 1934, as amended (the Act), we find that a state commission may not
require an incumbent local exchange carrier (LEC)  to provide digital
subscriber line (DSL)  service to an end user customer over the same
unbundled network element (UNE)  loop facility that a competitive LEC
uses to provide voice services to that end user.

"For the reasons set forth below, we conclude that state decisions
that impose such an obligation are inconsistent with and
substantially prevent the implementation of the Act and the
