MESH THE PLANET!
As a followup to the Internet Archive's Decentralized Web Summit
(https://decentralizedweb.net), members of Sudo Mesh (https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh) will
be hosting an unconference to bring together the decentralized internets community in the
shared spirit of meshing the planet!
What: Lightening talks / hackathon around building and deploying the decentralized web
When: Saturday, August 4th, 11:30am - 6pm
Where: The Omni Commons' Sudo Room and/or its ballroom, located @ 4799 Shattuck Ave,
Oakland, CA
Roughly half a mile north of the MacArthur BART station, ~20 mins from San Francisco
LIGHTENING TALKS
Give a 5-min talk about anything related to decentralized/mesh/community networks. Such as
— decentralization/wireless tech, community/wireless networks, democratizing/saving the
web, tech for social justice/equity, inclusiveness/exclusiveness of decentralized tech
spaces, etc.
We especially welcome underrepresented perspectives on these topics.
HACKATHON
Have an idea for a service or app that could live on a mesh network? Or have a project
that you've started but could use some help to make some progress on? Come propose it
to fellow attendees and maybe you can convince others to work on your rad project.
WE NEED VOLUNTEERS
If you'd like to participate and help organize event this Saturday, please come to the
weekly SudoMesh/PON meeting upstairs at the Omni at 7:30pm. Otherwise, just show up on
Saturday. We need help with the following:
* Front desk — welcome people, sign them in, answer people's questions
* Set up — it officially begins at 11:30, so we'll need help setting up the ballroom
space anytime between 10-11.
* Clean up — event ends at 6pm and we'll need help getting the ballroom clean and back
to the way we found it.
