I am interested in Mesh Networking …..
I am working with some guys ( generic ) in California …. bitseed.org
This is how I heard about your Matrix-like building.
I would like to collaborate on….
== methods of rapid installation ( including emergency installations )
== long links ( 10, 20, 30 or more kilometers ) with low latency
== tools for analytics , network simulation
I am an OpenIP kind of guy. Hardware & Software

Tonight I'd like to talk about how we talk about security and privacy.
There's a lot of misinfo about mesh networks being a solution to
surveillance, and I think it's important we come up with a statement on the
subject that's clear and concise.
The Einstein for Oakland campaign wants to come out in support of sudo
mesh, which I think would be great coverage for the project - so long as
it's framed in a way that's not misleading!
There's also a bunch of outstanding action items, so I'll be there early
working on stuff if anyone would like to join.
Add to the agenda here! https://pad.riseup.net/p/sudomesh
MtP!

Working on some last minute additions to some sensor/LED gizmos to show
kids how sensors work at the mini-maker faire on Sunday. Have to be
finished by tomorrow eve.
Unless a bubble of extra space/time pops in from another multi-verse I'll

Hey mesh folks
I added things to the mesh video script about *surveillance* and how the
mesh allows to build *our own content and apps* instead of using an
internet *curated by large corporations*.
i know it's all delicate to talk about but i believe that it's important to
talk about these things in the video, because it will catch people's
interest and touch their political sensitivity.
I try to be subtle about it though! I do have in mind that "you should
never trust the network", and i try to convey things in their complexity.
I'd like your impression and input!
here it is, changes are in bold, because we must be bold!

Dear April ,
Thanks again for presenting at LibrePlanet 2014. The next LibrePlanet will
be held March 21-22, 2015 in Cambridge, MA, and the call for sessions is
open now through Sunday, November 2nd. I hope you will submit a proposal
for a talk, panel, workshop, or strategy session for LibrePlanet 2015.
If you want to run any ideas by me, or have any questions about the
application, don't hesitate to be in touch. The original email with more
details is appended below. Oh, and please pass this along to your networks
if you feel so inspired--we'd be grateful!
Looking forward to your proposals,
Libby Reinish
Campaigns Manager
LibrePlanet 2015 <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015> is coming! We're
excited to announce that next year's conference will be held *March 21-22,
2015 in Cambridge, MA*. The Free Software Foundation is teaming up with the
Student Information Processing Board at MIT once again to bring you a
conference you won't want to miss. Our Call for Sessions
<https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/call_for_sessions/> is open now, and you
can also apply to volunteer <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/volunteer/>
or exhibit <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/exhibit/> at LibrePlanet 2015.
General registration will open in October.
You've got until Sunday, November 2nd, 2014 at 19:59 EST (23:59 UTC) to submit
your proposals <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/exhibit/>. We can't wait
to see what you come up with!
This year, the theme of LibrePlanet <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015> is
"Free Software Everywhere." We're looking for talks that touch on the many
places and ways that free software is used around the world, as well as
ways to make free software ubiquitous. Think "everywhere" in the broadest
sense of the word--it's not just geography-based talks we're after. What
are some contexts where free software is thriving, and some others where it
needs a push? How have you worked to gain a stronghold for free software in
your company or community? And what about free software on all of the
myriad pieces of hardware we use, including laptops, phones, tablets, and
even coffee makers? At LibrePlanet 2015, we're taking software freedom
around the world, to outer space, and consider its role in industry,
government, academia, community organizing, and personal computing.
Should I submit a session proposal for LibrePlanet?
Yes! We encourage speakers of all experience levels to submit a proposal.
LibrePlanet is a great place for new and seasoned speakers alike. While
LibrePlanet always includes technical talks, our program also emphasizes
non-technical topics and topics that are appropriate for newcomers. We are
especially interested to see proposals from people who use free software or
apply its values for social benefit, from academic research to community
organizing, education to medicine and the arts. LibrePlanet is committed to
increasing the participation of speakers belonging to groups traditionally
underrepresented at free software conferences, including women and people
of color.
Some ideas for sessions
-
Sharing a story of how free software has been applied for social benefit
-
Tackling a threat or organizing challenge facing the free software
movement
-
Demonstrating a new and exciting piece of software or development within
an existing software project
-
Engaging youth, the future of the free software movement. We're looking
for proposals for all age groups, from young children, to high school age,
to college students
-
Thinking critically about challenges and opportunities facing the
movement, and charting a path to victory
-
Bringing a key part of free software history to life
-
Giving newcomers a way to learn about free software principles and
philosophy, and/or giving newcomers a way to start using free software in
their daily lives
At LibrePlanet, we are looking for sessions that embrace the free software
movement's ideals and also its language. For example, using "free software"
is better than using "open source".
Volunteer for LibrePlanet
LibrePlanet depends on volunteer support during the planning process all
the way through the event. We're looking for volunteers who want to help us
with the planning and preparation work for LibrePlanet. Learn more about
volunteering and sign up at LibrePlanet.org
<https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/volunteer/>.
Promotional opportunities at LibrePlanet
LibrePlanet is the perfect place to spread the word about your organization
to an inspired and engaged audience. We have two kinds of promotional
opportunities for LibrePlanet 2015: exhibit tables and sponsorships.
Exhibit tables will be located in a highly visible primary thoroughfare.
Your table and program acknowledgement will reach hundreds of software
developers, free software activists, academics, students, and computer
users. You can apply for an exhibit table at LibrePlanet.org
<https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/exhibit/> Exhibitors will be accepted on
a rolling basis until the hall fills, so apply early!
What makes LibrePlanet <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015> so special is the
amazing contributions from our speakers, exhibitors, and volunteers. We
can't wait to hear your ideas!

Hey all,
In my research for mesh outreach and collaboration (particularly
focusing on the Internet archive tower in Richmond), I ran into
Building Blocks for Kids. They are an organization formed with the
"mission of supporting the healthy development and education of all
children, and the self-sufficiency of all families, living in the BBK
Collaborative zone located in Richmond, California."
Part of their focus is on digital literacy and access and they are
currently looking to hire someone to lead this portion.
More info about the position:
http://bbk-richmond.org/staff/employment-opportunities/
They've already set up a couple of repeaters to spread the Internet
archive wifi access and have funding to set up many more as far as I
know. In the end, however, that makes all of these families dependent
on the tower so Peoples Open Network could help relieve this
dependency by meshing with those who can already afford Internet
access in their home.
Anyways, good opportunity for someone at Sudo looking for work as well
as further pushing this idea of them working with the mesh instead of
just setting up repeaters.
Cheers -
Paige

Hey Meshies!
I'm at home building SudoWrt for Barrier Breaker and eating a little food.
Hopefully I'll be over around 8 with a BB firmware for testing on a couple
pico and nanostations.

Hey meshers!
We'll be meeting tonight at 4799 Shattuck to work on various aspects of
sudo mesh, with a particular focus on the non-technical logistics such as:
* Public communications and outreach (flyers, video, website, mailing list,
etc)
* Planning educational workshops and presentations
* Hardware inventory
* Funding models
* Documentation
* Collaboration and potential project partners
* Internal communications and coordination (mailing lists, irc, github,
wiki, etc)
* Project roadmap
All are welcome, though we may not have the capacity to onboard new folks -
onboarding and Q&A is the priority for the big general Last Thursdays
meetings and independently-scheduled workshops to be announced soon!
Please add to the agenda at our Riseup pad:
https://pad.riseup.net/p/sudomesh
...where you can also review last week's meeting notes! They're also
recorded for posterity at https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/25_September_2014
In general, moving forward Tuesday evenings will be dedicated firmware and
other in-depth tech hacknights, and Thursdays intended for the
non-technical logistics of the project. Last Thursdays will be focused
around onboarding new folks and answering questions from the general
public. All are welcome at sudo to come and hack with us, regardless!
Cheers,
Jenny

So fun! I'll bring up tonight w/ the mesh team possibly having a router
re-flashing sesh, for folks to bring back their routers and flash them with
the updated firmware!
Re: sudo's regularly occurring activities...
Maybe a yar 3D printing magnets, a ChrisB working on a bike, a Lady Alex
sewing patches onto things, an Ed putting linux on a donated pile of
computers, a Patrick making mate, a Liz editing video, an Anthony
calligraphying, a treeherder playing with arduinos, a Hol at the workbench,
a Daniel at the server rack, a couple folks (marc, nick, korl) working on
the planterbox pulley system?
October 5th is a good deadline also to clean and arrange the space so we
could even possibly fit all of the above into our side of the room ;)

It happens that there are a lot of people in an around Berkeley who are
working on "Internet freedom" projects having to do with free speech,
privacy, anonymity, and censorship. We're having a little meeting to
bring some of them together and talk about collaboration. It may be
followed up by more structured and grander plans in the future. It's a
good chance to learn about what problems exist if you're interested in
doing research in this field.
It's going to be shortly after security reading group this Friday:

Hi guys!
Thanks for publish us on your calendar! (I just saw it)
https://sudoroom.org/events/sudo-mesh-wifi-hack-night-2014-09-18/
But please add two things:
We're two: "Griselda and Al" and we're going to speak about guifi.net
itself and a data center we're building on core of guifi.net optic fiber
(and please add URL http://marsupi.org/barrahome/en/ ).
This new project is a cooperative data center for the people. Is based
on data can be accessible 100% across free community mesh network
managed by the people, without NSA surveillance (and also, of course,
accessible in the whole internet). So here we're getting in touch with
projects that wants to collaborate in making it real hosting here.
In some days we're going to launch a crowd funding campaign :)
...and if you want to know something concrete about guifi.net project,
please you can say us before in order to prepare a dedicated time in our
speech, 'cos is a very big project and we can focus more in protocols,
antennas, management, installations, routers, maps, organization, bands,...
See you on Thursday!
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...
