Hi friends,
who's up for some JSON?
We are trying to define a few JSON formats to interchange networking
data so that we can allow different projects to talk to each other.
Here's the idea: https://github.com/interop-dev/json-for-networks
Do you know anyone that is particularly interested in standardizations
of this kind?

I set up a wiki page to docment the mounting I have in mind with
dimensions, parts list, etc.
Check it out at: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Rooftop_Dish_Antenna_Mount
I plan to get to sudoroom around noonish so we can organize and build the
platform.
And, while I'd like to have a full-on party to celebrate this installation,
it's not really appropriate for the scene around my house. I get the
feeling a lot of folks would like to participate but I think 4 people would
be plenty enough. I am hoping we can get the platform built and staged
enough so that our rooftop work amounts to less than 30 minutes.
Thanks,
Chris.

Our last Thursday of the month meetings are where we invite people to come
learn about our project and spend time explaining everything. The next two
Thursdays fall on thanksgiving and christmas respectively.

As we are preparing to install some 5 ghz rooftop nodes, at tonight's
meeting we decided to buy some essentials.
We bought:
* 4x nanobridge m5 routers (two large versions, two small versions)
* 2x nanostation m5 routers
* 3x new batteries for our makita drill and impact driver
* 1000 feet of high quality shielded, UV and rain protected cat5e cable
* 100 shielded rj45 connectors for the cable
Total cost was about $970 including tax and shipping.
After this purchase sudo mesh has a remaining balance of about $2600
We are considering starting a recurring sunday installation day where we
install at least one new node every sunday. More info on this next week. We
still do not have our street-level node firmware finalized but the rooftop
links are much simpler so we are going to start rolling those out very very
soon.

Hi!
EFF is organizing an event this Thursday in support of net neutrality.
Mitar
-------- Forwarded Message --------
From: April Glaser | EFF Activism Team <action(a)eff.org>
Subject: San Francisco: Speak out on net neutrality on Thursday, 11/20
To: Mi Tar <mitar.eff(a)tnode.com>
Dear Digital Rights Defender,
You are invited to join EFF next Thursday, November 20, for a free
public event on the quickly unfolding national debate on net neutrality,
to be hosted at San Francisco City Hall.
[https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2014/11/net-neutrality-battle-isnt-over-and-c…]
The event is “Bay Area Speaks: A People’s Hearing on the Future of the
Internet,” where you are invited to testify at City Hall about why net
neutrality matters to Bay Area communities. Attendees will also receive
an update from the lawyers, policy analysts, and activists who have been
working on the front lines to make sure the FCC takes the right path
forward.
Before the hearing, supporters will rally outside City Hall at 5:30pm
and are encouraged to bring cell phones, laptops, and flashlights for a
cell phone vigil and to hold signs and colorful art to demonstrate
support for Internet freedom. Download this image to display on your
screen at the rally.
[https://www.eff.org/files/2014/11/12/net_neutraltity_protest_0.jpg]
What: “Bay Area Speaks: A People's Hearing on the Future of the Internet.”
Who: Former FCC Commissioner Michael Copps; Amy Sonnie, Outreach
Director of the Oakland Public Library; Jay Nath, Chief Innovation
Officer for the City of San Francisco; Corynne McSherry, Director of
Intellectual Property at the Electronic Frontier Foundation; Malkia
Cyril, Executive Director of the Center for Media Justice; Tim Poznar of
Fandor.com; and others.
Date: Thursday, November 20
Time: Rally – 5:30 pm, Hearing – 7 pm
Where: San Francisco City Hall
1 Dr Carlton B Goodlett Place; Room 305
PLEASE RSVP HERE: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/933163
The People’s Hearing comes at a key moment in the debate over net
neutrality. Last Monday, President Barack Obama issued a statement in
support of full, clear net neutrality rules, echoing the demands of the
4 million Americans who have spoken out in favor of the same reforms
throughout the year. The FCC is weighing its options now and is expected
to act as early as December.
[https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2014/11/white-house-gets-it-net-neutrality-wi…]
It’s time to make sure California voices are heard in the national
discussions. The fight isn’t over yet; come meet us at the front lines.
[http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/933163]
Hope to see you there,
April Glaser
Activism Team
PS: Can’t make it to the event? We’ll be streaming live starting at 7pm
on Thursday, November 20: www.sfgovtv.org/index.aspx?page=135

Hi!
Hmmm. This does not sound good.

From: Nathan White, DemandProgress.org <info(a)demandprogress.org>
Subject: Vigil in San Francisco for the open Internet
Hey,
The FCC's Net Neutrality proposal just leaked, and it's terrible. Four
million people spoke out against "slow lanes" and cable company
censorship, and the FCC's rules explicitly open the door for that kind
of abuse. From what we're hearing, they're finalizing the rules right
now. We can still stop this, but we have to act swiftly and show a
strong response right away.
[1]Find out about Thursday's emergency protest in San Francisco. Sign up
and spread the word!
Here's the plan: we need to send a strong message to President Obama and
the FCC right now that the Internet using public won't just roll over
and let them take our rights away. So, taking some inspiration from mass
protests in Hungary that just defeated an unfair Internet Tax there,
we'll gather after dark at the White House and government buildings
nationwide and hold up our glowing cell phones, laptops, tablets, to
shine light on the corruption unfolding in Washington, DC that threatens
our most basic freedoms.
Will you join us on Thursday in front of the Civic Center Plaza in San
Francisco, CA? If you can't make it, can you spread the word?
[2]Yes, I'll share or go to the action in San Francisco on Thursday!
The battle for the net is coming to head. Everything you can do right now
matters more than you know. Here are the details for the event, please
spread the word:
What: Vigil in San Francisco for the open Internet
When: November 6th, 6pm PST
Where: Civic Center Plaza, San Francisco, CA
355 Mcallister St, San Francisco, California 94102
Bring your cell phone, flashlight, or candle!
See you there,

It's been almost 17 months since we read the first of Edward Snowden's
leaks and not everything on the Internet is encrypted yet. Let's get
together a fortnight hence and fix that. Learn crypto tools and teach
your friends and classmates and colleagues.

Hi All,
Found a flyer for this at Scarlett City coffee, and sounded interesting.
As an intro, my name is Trav, I'm a designer/developer in Emeryville. I
do front-end work currently, although have done server-side stuff in the
past.
I'll just be lurking for a bit to find out what goes on here, but I
thought I'd note that for the last several days when you navigate to
peoplesopen.net, you get a certificate error. You may want to either
update your cert, or not auto-redirect to https (which may be better if
you don't really need an encrypted connection for most of the content.)
Hope that makes sense, happy to provide more info (and sorry if this is
off-topic for this list).
Trav
Hey everyone,
I am Federico Capoano (aka Nemesis), from Ninux.org, I met some of the
sudomesh people a few days ago.
I wanted to tell you that I'll lurk your lists to stay up to date with
what you are doingand I hope there will be chances to collaborate on
common goals.
Federico
I should have sent an email earlier, but I apologize for missing mesh
tonight. I'm at an Inveneo event meetin' folks.
Do check the pad for notes from our great meeting with Federico on Tuesday!

MtP!
hey all,
I'd like to implement a connection to the 5ghz node sitting on top of the
7-story building at Laney College.
We've got some 5ghz antennas:
http://www.l-com.com/wireless-antenna-49-58-ghz-27-dbi-lightweight-die-cast…
I believe we do have some 5ghz Ubiquiti Nanostations, but as far as I'm
aware we would have to hack them to work with the directional antennas we
have around. Sub-ideal.
Looking for a cheap alternative, I'm thinking about buying one or two of
these Ubiquiti Bullet5 routers:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/UbiQuiti-Bullet5-5GHz-802-11a-100mW-outdoor-wireles…
Does anyone recommend an alternative device?
Also, let me know if you want to participate!

I just received the same notice from the State of California Franchise Tax

Subject: Submitting Tax Information to State of California by Nov 7
To: sudo-discuss <sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org>, Board of Responsiblity
and Little Power <board(a)lists.sudoroom.org>
We received a notice from the State of California Franchise Tax Board,
notifying us that (since we have yet to submit or complete our 501(c)3
application) we must fill out state form 3500 to convince California not to
levy state taxes for last year, 2013.
I've filled out this form to the best of my knowledge so far, but it is
incomplete. It needs some more attention. See attached:
"state_tax_form_3500_sudo_room.pdf"
which should have saved my submitted values to many of the required fields.
We need a few things:
1. Review what I've already added (make sure dates and such are correct!)
2. Complete the rest of the form to the best of our ability
3. See if any lawyerly advice can help us ensure this goes smoothly
4. *Submit before Friday November 7* (30 days from October 9, 2014)
"Send us either your tax exempt letter, Form 3500, Form 3500A, or Form 100
with a copy of this letter within the next 30 days or we may issue a tax
assessment based on available information. A penalty of 25% of the
additional tax may be assessed for failure to provide information upon
written request."
