EDITOR'S NOTE

Good Afternoon,

This afternoon's edition of iTnews features a contribution from former editor of Communications Day and Digital Media, Natalie Apostolou, who writes that Telstra's union is planning further strike action this week despite agreements reached with new Telstra CEO David Thodey.

We would be very interested to hear your opinion on this one. Are the unions going overboard or doing the right thing by IT workers?
