The oakland internet choice initiative is picking up speed!
> The Oakland Internet Choice Coalition (OICC) is organizing to provide a
legal path requiring landlords of large multi-tenant buildings to allow
*any *qualified Internet service provider to serve their tenants.
Oakland City Council President Rebecca Kaplan is looking for community
support in the next couple of months.

[View More]think passing this ordinance is going to be a really important step to
support independent ISPs in their fight against the big monopolies.

Subject: [ORCA] In case you're interested in the Bay area mesh thing...
To:
This Friday, January 17th, 7 PM at the San Francisco Veterans Administration
Building 7:
Kiley KD8DRX & Greg W2GMD will present the San Francisco Wireless Emergency
Mesh project.
We'll cover the basics of "How we got here?", "Why we're building this?",
"Who …
[View More]will use it?" and most importantly "Why is crimping ethernet jacks so
triggering for Greg?"
This presentation is open to all interested parties, regardless of SF Radio
Club membership.
Bonus, we'll have hardware available for anyone interested in connecting to
the mesh, and we'll be on hand to help you flash & configure your hardware
at
our Flash Party afterwards.
