MaxThanks!Hey Elisa,I'd still very much like to hear what the other folks here have to say about community outreach, but my suggestion would be that maybe we find out what the current state of connectivity, etc. is at and around the library and try to draw out whether or not they'd go for something *like* our project before we do any sort of proposing. I'd be happy to go with you to the next community redevelopment meeting (I practically live in the neighborhood), if you want to let us know when/where that might happen?On Mon, May 18, 2015 at 12:44 AM, pansophia <pansophia@gmail.com> wrote:~ ElisaWhat do you think? If it is safe to bring this up, I will propose it at the next community redevelopment meeting.On the bright side, it's a consistent source of paid-for wifi. The bandwidth for downloads is not huge, but my understanding is the Mesh signal would only allow for email and basic Internet browsing anyway.The first question - and the one everyone thought you would be the most expert on - is whether it would be wise to have any contact at all with official government entities...?Hi, April -I've been involved in the Adeline community redevelopment process in Berkeley, and I also live practically across the street from the South Berkeley library. While Max was explaining the Mesh topology today, I was wondering whether it would be possible to collaborate with local libraries to boost their wifi signal out into local communities.
