Hey everybody,
Sudo Mesh, Sudo Room, Omni Commons, et al. now has its own etherpad-lite
<https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite> instance running on the mesh and
also accessible via "the Internet." Help test it out by going to
https://peoplesopen.net/pad and creating your very own collaborative
SudoPad. We are currently working on documenting the service on our wiki,
https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/SudoPad, and it is still very much in the
testing phase, so use it with caution.
cheers,
-grant
On Dec. 14th the FCC [1] (Federal Communication Commission) is preparing
to dismantle net neutrality [2] which prevents the huge internet service
providers' oligopoly from unfairly discriminating against websites it
doesn't like and would help lead to the privatization &
commercialization of the internet.
But the grassroots is fighting back! Folks are organizing protests at
Verizon stores locations around the country. Verizon [3], in particular,
will make bigly profits from the …
[View More]destruction of net neutrality. In the
Oakland-Berkeley area there are 3 Verizon locations, and as of yet,
apparently no one is organizing [4] any actions there. We are going to
be the laughing stock of the national movement.
If you can be a contract for one of these Verizon protests, just go to
verizonprotests.com [5] and enter your contact info [6] for the location
that you pick! (The details are at the web site). The protests are
taking place on (or before) December 7th, so please help out with this
just as soon as you can!
Me, I'm useless, the 7th is my first wife's birthday (she was born on
the 25th anniversary of Pearl Harbor Day) and she wants me to take her
to Calistoga to view the smoking ruins. And the way I look, I better
stick with the partner I have.
Thanks for all you do,
Ed & the rump of Occupy Oakland

Wish I could be there, I will be out of town. Actually I'm just north of DC
& would happily attend a rally about this downtown if I knew of one. The
FCC ruling will be issued, I think, on Dec. 15, by which time I'll be back
in Oakland.
Hey y'all -
I've been rummaging around the https://github.com/sudomesh/sudowrt-firm
ware on and off the last couple of weeks.
I found that I (and I assume others) could not reliably build our
sudowrt firmware, and without firmware no peoplesopen, so I got
motivated.
Some observations / updates:
- docker images are now being pushed from travis to docker hub daily or
whenever a change occurs. This images contain a base build image that
you can pull to your own environment.
- I refactored …
[View More]some of the build scripts in an effort to separate the
getting of resources (feeds etc.) from the actual building to reduce
variability
- aside from pushing build images to docker hub, travis also attempt to
create a firmware build, and gets terminated after about 40 min because
of > 4MB of console output.
- the version of openwrt is now fixed to a specific commit hash (see ht
tps://github.com/sudomesh/sudowrt-
firmware/blob/master/openwrt_config/version): previously we were
building off of HEAD, with all excitement associated to it.
- I found out that during make (the actual building of the firmware),
all sorts of dependencies are downloaded. Some of these dependencies
are no longer available for the last openwrt release 15.05.1 (e.g., htt
ps://github.com/sudomesh/sudowrt-firmware/issues/114).
- still working on creating a home node firmware build . . .
Curious to hear your thoughts,
-jorrit

Hello Folks,
It has been several days now that I am not on PON. The private network is
fine, it is just the mesh side that is down.
And, I feel that perhaps the latest patches may have broke this particular
node model. I have a TP-Link TL-WDR3500.
If someone in this list has the same node model, please, let me know if
yours is working.
Many thanks in advance,
--

Aloha from the northwest.
I had stopped by at some point in my travels to the sudo room.
Some of you may remember me talking about peaceful revolution, organizing
human/nature interaction logistics in communities at large scale, or
something about The Guide.
We’ve created a prototype but there’s lots of work left to do.
So We’ve created an outlet for folks who would like to get involved.

John, Murtada, Jaime and myself are on our way to tax exempt 501c3 status
and land trust. But we could use help along the way.
We have land in Joshua Tree and the Colombia Gorge, here in the Northwest
we have 2 positions available with housing and work on
Software/CSA/Construction.
Hope all is well in Mesh land, you have been an invaluable resource in my
own understanding of things mesh and community.
Skal!
