On Wednesday the ERG sent out a second release of some guidelines. These are also available on their website until September 5. It contains such bureaucratic masterpieces as this:

Quote:
Charges in currencies other than the euro

The relevant exchange rate for charges in currencies other than the Euro for
the first 12 months is the one quoted in the Official Journal for 30 June 20071
(and for following years on anniversaries of that date).


The charge limits for the Eurotariff and the wholesale average charge should
be calculated to the maximum number of decimal places permitted by the
official exchange rate. This sets the maximum that can be charged in the
national currency. Providers may wish in practice to quote charges in whole
numbers of currency units, especially at the retail level, although this practice
is not compulsory. In this case, the numbers should be rounded down.
Rounding up of these numbers to above the level of the relevant cap is not
permitted under any circumstances.
- which basically says that for instance a UK network might charge me 35p or 35.47p, but not 36p, or whatever the actual numbers happen to be.

And this is nearly a month after the deadline for the networks sending in the tariffs ...
