Electrical Help Needed

by G Gallo

Hey mesh people! We are in need of some volunteer electrical help. One potential node location has some unique power constraints and the resident would like advice on untangling a junction box and running some new conduit out of it. They are willing to do most of the labor themself, but would like to consult with someone who has experience as an electrician and is familiar with installation standards. If you'd like to help out, please email me directly as I am coordinating with resident. Thanks, -grant

BYOI Office Hours/Node Mounts Sun 2/25

HOWEVER, most of us will be preparing for and going out to mount nodes (aka antenna + wifi router) at two strategic locations. We haven't yet determined who all is going to each one, but you can show up and we can figure it out then. Or if you can't join on the outing, stop by closer to 1pm to ask us questions/observe as we prepare … [View More]

Dr. David Bray, our Executive Director joined us after serving as CIO of the FCC <https://www.washingtonexec.com/2018/02/where-are-they-now-dr-david-bray/> has spoken of the transition from eGov to ePublic Service and the key role that #PositiveChangeAgents will play. As we reached out to our community we have been deeply touched and inspired by the response - a global network is mobilizing, to name just one: Women's Campaign International <http://www.womenscampaigninternational.org/> is working shoulder to shoulder with us.Our PCI team will be introducing Project Coqui <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZRlF4xqTHM>led by Melvin Cordova <https://www.linkedin.com/in/melvin-cordova-55aa733b/> and Marti Grimminck <https://www.innovativeresilience.org/> By listening to the voice of the people in the local communities in Puerto Rico, we can develop projects that are sustainable. These were the factors that enabled Singapore's success: Invest in people, the most powerful underutilized asset will payback 100-fold. Together, we can take action for a better future, demonstrating the power of the* Internet of the people by the people for the people. * Join us to assure a better future that everyone can be part of creating. Spread the word! *NEWSFLASH * PCI Chairman Vint Cerf will be mid-pen for an evening fundraiser for Puerto Rico on March 6. Let me know if you can join us: Email me at mlf(a)alum.mit.edu and I will send you an invitation. *PS We welcome donations of smartphones - Project Coqui lands in Puerto Rico Tuesday February 27th.* A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step.

Proposing/ Announcing the Node Explainer Program (NEP) - starting tomorrow!

by Jorrit Poelen

hey y'all: After our infamous weeks long exit node outage (see https://github.com/sudomesh/bugs/issues/8) , I am hoping to get more folks to explain to others how nodes (home/exit) work and keep 'em running. Now is a good time because juul is pretty busy and I'll be out of the country until early March. This is why I've added the following proposal for tomorrows meeting: "The Node Explainer Program (NEP, better names proposal encouraged: node whisperer, node operator?) - *Node … [View More]

Fwd: [Mozilla/NSF-WINS] Stage 1 winners and Stage 2 instructions

by Jenny Ryan

People's Open Network has received an Honorable Mention for the Smart Community Networks Challenge! Both PON and Disaster Radio have been chosen to move onto Stage 2 of the Challenge. Great work, team! -- Jenny Ryan People's Open Network <https://peoplesopen.net> *Building a community-owned and -operated wireless network in Oakland, California!* ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mehan Jayasuriya <mehan(a)mozillafoundation.org> Date: Tue, Feb 20, 2018 at 1:06 PM Subject:… [View More] [Mozilla/NSF-WINS] Stage 1 winners and Stage 2 instructions To: Mehan Jayasuriya <wirelesschallenge(a)mozillafoundation.org> Hello, This morning, we announced the 20 teams that were chosen for awards during Stage 1 of the NSF-WINS Challenges. You can view all of the winning projects, as well as profiles of our judges, on the NSF-WINS website <https://wirelesschallenge.mozilla.org/>. If you’re receiving this email, your team has been selected to move on to Stage 2 of the Challenges. We’re experiencing an issue where some teams did not receive notification of their status via email; please find a copy of the Stage 2 notification letter attached to this email. If you have any additional questions about your application status, please let us know. What’s Next? The WINS Stage 2 application is now available via the Fluxx portal. Simply log into Fluxx using your existing credentials in order to fill out the application. Please see the application guide for a full set of instructions on how to fill out the Stage 2 application <https://wirelesschallenge.mozilla.org/_assets/NSF.WINS.application.guide.pdf>. Please make sure you’re using the latest version of the guide (v1.3, February 2018), as some of the Stage 2 application questions have changed since the previous version. Your Stage 2 application is due by June 22nd. What Will the Judges Be Looking for in Stage 2? The goal of Stage 2 of the Challenges is to turn your design concept into a working prototype that demonstrates what the capabilities of a real network based on your design could be. This might mean a piece of hardware (for example, a single network node that runs your software), an MVP (minimum viable product) version of your solution or even a small-scale test network that users can connect to. Judges will be looking for a prototype that can demonstrate things like network speed, range and power consumption; please see the application guide for a detailed list of criteria <https://wirelesschallenge.mozilla.org/_assets/NSF.WINS.application.guide.pdf> . In July, a select number of Stage 2 finalists will be invited to a “demo day” showcase in Mountain View, CA on August 14th, where they will demo their working prototypes for judges. Finalists will be asked to give a short presentation that identifies the problem they are trying to solve, the intended users of their solution and the capabilities of their prototype. More details on the demo day event will be provided this summer. Congratulations on being selected to move on to Stage 2 of the Challenges! We look forward to reviewing your working prototype this summer. If you have any questions, please let me know.
