hi friends, sorry for the delay in getting this to you all. sometimes real jobs get in the way, no? :-) it was a productive weekend. the dev team made bable work, so big ups to max, marc, alex, and jake for plowing through that. the notes can be found after our last meeting's notes: https://pad.riseup.net/p/sudomesh we also got some implementation plans and definitions ironed out. please thumb through the notes at your leisure. and hang in there. i'll be in touch soon with new folks about plugging in and marking things off a to-do list. thanks to all the new folks for coming! all my very best, april ps: the notes aren't that clean, but their not beyond the understanding. pss: do you anyone who lives in the oakland hills that would love a new antenna on their roof? --- *definitions* * What differentiates sudomesh from similar projects? * It's not a mesh in a traditional sense, of like a single omnidirectional antennas. We're talking about community networks. Other installations around the US do not integrate the notion of providing high levels of service. We want to provide a high speed, symmetrical, and reliable connection. * We are looking at aslightlydifferent kind of network topology. We'll need some number of backbone links, likely with base stations that individuals can connect to. Different than the sort of "mesh" cloud of omni-directional links that "mesh" is often referred. * People's open also requires people who wants to peer on the network to sign a lisence agreement that explicitly denotes principles of network neutrality. -- 0x54FC570B
