Hey, Jorrit. Learning how to interpret home/exit node dreams and
(inter)facial expressions sounds great!
I am game, but I can't make it to the meeting Tonite :-/ I might be able to
arrive in time for the breakout? Around 9? I can ping the rocket signal and
see where y'all are at.
Alternatively, I'm available most of today *before* the meeting if people
want to get whispering early.
Thanks for offering to share these vital knowledges!

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 explainers explain how (exit/home)
nodes work and keep them from misbehaving by troubleshooting, preparing bug
fixes, applying patches, implementing new features and upgrading software. *To
become a node explainer, you should be able to show someone how to build
your own internet by configuring one, (ideally two) home node(s) (
https://peoplesopen.net/walkthrough ) to use a custom, self-created
exitnode (
https://github.com/sudomesh/exitnode ). This also includes
showing how babeld and tunneldigger work together by using (and improving!)
https://github.com/sudomesh/babeld-lab and
https://github.com/sudomesh/tunneldigger-lab on the home and exit nodes
using tools like ip route , ip addr, tcpdump . "
Hoping to help get 2-3 explainers (the three bens + ... ?) up and running
before Thursday, and I am volunteering for a node explainer break-out on
Tuesday after the general sudomesh meeting. If you are thinking of joining,
please bring a laptop with ethernet port, a home node and access to a
digital ocean account. Please holler if you have questions or just want to
share that this is a ridiculous idea.
thx,
-jorrit
