Hello All
I recently joined this list after learning about the sudomesh project on
reddit. I'm interested in learning more about hosting a node. The wiki
page that describes this (
https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/How_to_help#Host_a_node.21) says to add your
location to the map, but the map link is out of date. Can anyone advise
please the most current procedure for this?

Hi meshy folks,
I work with Digital Democracy[1], a non-profit doing offline
peer-to-peer mapping for environmental monitoring in parts of South
America.
Dd is looking for someone who is interested in traveling to the
savannahs of southern Guyana and set up long-distance wifi connections
for indigenous communities. They're looking for volunteers for a trip in
February/March. You can find the details here:
https://gist.github.com/gmaclennan/dfba3afd0575b6a9cbbe4200d9b26d82
Dd can potentially pay flights and costs as well.
If you're interested, ping Gregor McLennan at gmaclennan(a)digital-democracy.org

Subject: Toronto Mesh @ 34c3 Freifunk Assembly
To: info(a)peoplesopen.net
Hello People’s Open!
Toronto Mesh will be having a talk at the Freifunk Assembly at 34c3. It
will mostly focus on the history of Toronto community networks and what
Toronto Mesh has been doing. We thought it'd be nice to mention some of the
North American community meshnets to this predominantly European audience.
So please email hello(a)tomesh.net <hello(a)tomesh.net> if there is something
you'd like us to mention. Something brief about your local network,
approach, what works and what doesn't, the tech, interesting projects you
are building, etc. Details about the talk is listed here:
https://frab.txtfile.eu/en/34c3-ffc/public/events/8

Pretty good! Though the word "mesh" gets repeated so often it stopped
making sense to me. I think we should try to push "community network" more.
We really need a request form on the website. Anyone object to me throwing
one up?

Hey y'all,
if you didn't know, sudomesh recently acquired the domain
buildyourowninter.net (thanks jenny!). We've tossed around a lot of ideas,
most involve making it some sort collaborative resource for, well, building
your own internet, but we have yet to do anything with it. We are looking
for advice, suggestions, input, help, inspiration, pizza. Feel free to
respond to this thread or comment on the github issue,
https://github.com/sudomesh/bugs/issues/10.
cheers,
-grant_____/@paidforby
just got the word from our lawyer, Jesse, that our 1023 nonprofit
application has been approved, and Sudo Mesh is officially a 501c3
nonprofit retroactive to our date of incorporation - November 5th, 2013!
Hooray!

props to Bill for a most excellent rundown of the implications of the net
neutrality repeal and community mesh networks as a promising radical
alternative :)
