+# This is a kppp ruleset for Eircom (formerly Telecom Eireann)
+# for special-rate Internet 1891 calls ONLY.
+#
+# Unbelievably, Eircom has now dropped the former (ludicrously
+# irrelevant) distance-based charge-bands on direct-dialled calls.
+# They still remain for operator-connected calls but these are
+# (a) a rarity and (b) unusable for modems anyway. Calls in Ireland
+# are therefore in one of the following categories:
+#
+# 1. Local calls
+# 2. Special-rate Internet calls (ISPs with 1891 numbers)
+# 3. National calls (ie all other trunk or long-distance calls)
+#
+# Note that some Telcos offer special deals of a fixed-rate per-month
+# charge which gives you unlimited, uncharged local calls in off-peak
+# times. At other times, your standard Telco rates apply.
+#
+# "Local" is as hard to define as in any other Telco administration,
+# as it can cross area codes, even when they are in different regions,
+# in order to allow people to call their neighbours 100 yards away
+# even though they may technically be in an area code which would
+# normally qualify as "long-distance", because such calls don't go
+# onto the trunk, just the local exchange.
+#
+# Note all values here include Value-Added Tax at 21% current
+# at 31-Dec-1999

+# Define IEP (Irish Pounds) to be used as currency symbol
+# ??? There is no way to define the currency code AND the symbol !!!
+# WARNING this will have to be changed to EUR from 2002-01-01
+currency_symbol=£
+
+# Define the position of the currency symbol.
+# (not absolutely needed, default is "right")
+# ??? Curious default, why not left, which is _way_ more common? !!!
+currency_position=left 
+
+# Define the number of significant digits.
+# (not absolutely needed, default is "2"
+currency_digits=2
+
+# NOTE: rules are applied from top to bottom - the
+#       LAST matching rule is the one used for the
+#       cost computations.
+
+# It costs 11.5p the moment a call connects. This covers the first
+# 450 secs (peak hours, 8am-6pm M-F) or first 15 mins (off-peak)
+per_connection=0.115
+
+# Therefore the minimum cost is the same as the per-connection cost
+minimum_costs=0.115
+
+# Therefore the first 450 secs costs this much no matter what.
+flat_init_costs=(0.115,450)
+# A pity there's no peak/offpeak differential for this one.
+
+# All subsequent charging is done per-second, based on the unit
+# charge of 11.5p for 450 secs (peak hours) or 11.5p for 15mins
+# (off-peak), which works out at £0.00025556/sec and £0.000127778p/sec
+# respectively...that's what they claim, anyway.
+
+# Rather than expect kppp to check the rate every second and add
+# tiny fractions, I've expressed these rates in terms of the amount
+# needed to clock up half a penny (or the closest amount exceeding
+# that value obtainable by multiplying the per-second rate by an
+# integer). Not a whole penny, because you may be damn certain the
+# bean-counters will round up half-penny amounts to the nearest
+# whole penny anyway (anal-retentive, are we? :-)
+
+# Thus the base rate for peak-time calls is £0.005111 for 20 secs
+# (0.115 / 450 = 0.00025556 / 0.005 = 0.051111 inv = 19.56521)
+# and off-peak is £0.005111  for 40 secs 
+# (0.115 / 900 = 0.000127778 / 0.005 = 0.25556 inv = 39.1304)
+# so accounting should happen in approx 1/2p increments...
+
+# OK, here we go...
+
+# Because of the need to detect time-of-day as well as initial-period, 
+# this default should never actually get applied, but we assume that
+# connections are made in the peak rate period...
+default=(0.00511,20)
+
+# PEAK-TIME CALLS are 8am to 6pm Mon-Fri, so after flat_init_costs

+

+# This file should be refreshed every year to take account of the

+# These happen several times a year, always on a Monday. Dates 
+# for 2000 are June 5th, August 7th, and October 30th.
+# The exact dates are known several years in advance and are fixed
+# by the Taoiseach's Office and the Dept of Local Government.
+# They are NOT the same days as British Bank Holidays, which are
+# fixed on a different basis.
