Over this month, sudo\u00a0roomers and sudo meshers<\/a>\u00a0have had the opportunity to meet and hang out with new friends from Catalonia who participate in the Guifi.net<\/a> project.<\/p>\n

Al and Griselda gave a presentation at one of the weekly sudo mesh meetups, this past\u00a0Thursday 2014\/09\/18<\/a>. They gave us a lot of updates about the history and current development of their community-owned and -operated digital network.<\/p>\n

See the presentation slides here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We asked a slew of questions that can help us\u00a0work on our local network, peoplesopen.net<\/a>\u00a0through the sudo mesh project. We were inspired by the XOLN or “Commons for an Open Free and Neutral Network (OFNN)”<\/a> which you can read in draft\u00a0English translation here<\/a>. Especially resonant are the “Fundamental Principles”:<\/p>\n

\n
\n

You <\/span>have the freedom to<\/span> use the net<\/span>work<\/span> for any <\/span>purpose<\/span> as long as you don’t harm<\/span> the <\/span>operation of the network itself<\/span>, the <\/span>rights<\/span> of other users, <\/span>or the principles of ne<\/span>ut<\/span>rality that allow contents and services to flow without deliberate interference<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

You <\/span>have the right to understand the network<\/span>, <\/span>to know its components<\/span>, <\/span>and to spread knowledge of its mechanisms and principles<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

You <\/span>have the right<\/span> to<\/span> offer<\/span> services and<\/span> content to the network <\/span>on your own terms<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

You <\/span>have the right<\/span> to join the network<\/span>,<\/span> and <\/span>the responsibility <\/span>to extend <\/span>this set of rights to anyone according to these same terms<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

These principles further inspired the Free Network Definition<\/a>:<\/p>\n

A free network equitably grants the following freedoms to all:<\/p>\n

Freedom 0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Freedom to communicate for any purpose, without discrimination, interference, or interception.<\/p>\n

Freedom 1<\/span><\/h3>\n

The freedom to grow, improve, communicate across, and connect to the whole network.<\/p>\n

Freedom 2<\/span><\/h3>\n

The freedom to study, use, remix, and share any network communication mechanisms, in their most reusable forms.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Also exciting is the prospect of a guifi.net datacenter<\/a>\u00a0including an upcoming crowdfunding<\/a> campaign! \u00a0Attendees of\u00a0our guests’\u00a0presentation got to see the first public screening of their animated video\u00a0demonstrating their vision of\u00a0how a datacenter will work for the guifi.net community. It was awesome!<\/p>\n

Finally, look forward to updates about a collaboration between Al, Griz, Jenny, and other meshers reviving meshtheplanet.org<\/a>\u00a0(aka meshthepla.net<\/a>)!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
