Howdy mesh crew -
I've sort have been out of commission for the past month or so and was
wondering if the Tuesday mesh meetups were still happening. If so, will
anyone be around tonight? If not I will see you all Thursday.

Want to have our own networked radiation monitoring station? The Global
Radiation Monitoring Network is looking to add nodes to their network
<http://www.uradmonitor.com/join-the-network/>.
They only have two dozen or so nodes around the world so far, and none in
California. "In this early phase of the project, there is only a minimal,
non-profit cost, to cover the hardware components used and the shipping."
The nodes are weatherproofed, and only need 5V power and an ethernet cable.
Is this something that could potentially be piggy-backed on to the sudo
mesh nodes as well? One of their node models has a barometric pressure
sensor as well. Not sure to what extent this is an open source project, but
we could find out.
They were just featured as one of the semifinalists for the Hackaday prize
<http://hackaday.com/2014/09/11/global-radiation-monitoring-network-update/>,
so I expect they'll be getting an influx of new node requests...

here's the text translated from the attached HTML:
Hi all,
There is a small, urgent gig in the next few days for an activist
organization fighting climate change.
Pay is about $1000, and needs to be ready for Sep 8th.
It involves the following:
We need a DD-WRT router to be configured to serve a captive portal (our
static campaign page) *without* a WAN connection. We can supply the router.
We need you to configure it. Specifically: Installing and configuring a
lightweight web server on the router (lighttpd seems to work) to host our
page. Configuring the router's firewall to forward all incoming
requests on ports 80 and 443 to the web server. Configuring the
router's DNS and DHCP handling to redirect requests back to the router.
This thread should offer useful guidance for someone who's skilled on
the UNIX command line.
That's the basics.
Useful bells and whistles include logging how many users see the page, and
configuring the web server to (securely) log entries to a form on the page
(our campaign petition).
Contact Brant Olson with any interest - brant(a)engagementlab.org
4115-596-6581.
Thanks all,

Hey all,
What do ya'll think about setting up a couple of development VPSs from the
sudo mesh budget?
I'd like to go for one or two of something like this:
- http://www.ftpit.com/
- ~$2 / mo for (either)
- 2 CPU Core | 512 MB RAM | 30 GB Storage | 1 TB Bandwidth | 1
IPv4 | OpenVZ & SolusVM
- 2 CPU Core | 512 MB RAM | 20 GB Storage (SSD) | 1 TB Bandwidth |
1 IPv4 | OpenVZ & SolusVM
I'm putting some attention in on the exitnode provisioning (and therefore
server provisioning in general).
I was thinking about setting up some in-person machines at sudo room for
developer training, development environments, testing before deployment,
etc. Marc pointed out that the power consumption of such a machine would
probably not be worth it given the low cost of a VPS. However, I still want
to streamline the process for facilitating new developers to build a
smaller version of peoplesopen.net network, and to provide testing
infrastructure to maintain reliability and up-time.
I updated this page on the wiki, please contribute:
