Seems they'd be better off just gathering data from existing speedtest 
networks.  But speed isn't the only issue they should be looking at.  If 
the government really wants to make significant, long-term improvements to 
the national network infrastructure, it also needs to be encouraging 
deployment of multicast and IPv6 to the end-user.
