by Vicky Knox

What's the word on that? Would there be room at said table for an Oakland Wiki representative with laptop in hand?

Sudo Non Profit Status for Grant App Challenge ending March 31

by Liberty Madison

Can someone clarify our current status? I am interested in applying for a grant however these are the requirements "I certify that the organization for which I am submitting this application is eligible to apply for the Challenge. This means my organization is a registered and recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a registered office in the Bay Area. If you are a fiscal sponsor submitting an application for a sponsored group, the sponsored group must also be located in the Bay Area. " So do we qualify? Are we a 501(c)(3) Thanks! Liberty-

Toward a network commons: Building an Internet for and by the people

by Jenny Ryan

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey sudoers! A coalition of free/libre community-owned networks around the world has submitted an application for a Knight News Challenge grant aimed at strengthening the Internet for free expression and innovation. https://www.newschallenge.org/challenge/2014/submissions/toward-a-network-c… Please check it out, give us feedback in the form of Comments, and some "Applause" if you dig the idea! The goal of funding is trifold: * To support the development of the Network Commons License[1] and an organization to uphold it, * To support an international Free Networks summit to gather together representatives of free networks[2] in one place to share ideas and resources toward creating the aforementioned organization, * To support the creation of educational materials, workshops, and guides for the construction and maintenance of free networks. [1] There is currently an effort underway to develop a Network Commons License - similar to a Creative Commons License - to enable legal support for free networks. Two weeks ago, a group of folks representing Sudo Mesh, wlan-slovenija, LA Meshnet, Kansas City Freedom Network and Austin Freenet converged in Austin for the Free Network Foundation's winter summit. It was an awesome, intensive couple of days with remote participation from several other groups. You can read notes from the summit here: https://commons.thefnf.org/index.php/2014WinterSummitMondayNotes * Draft of the Free Network Definition: https://commons.thefnf.org/index.php/Free_network_definition * Draft of the Network Commons License: https://commons.thefnf.org/index.php/Network_Commons_License [2] The following groups helped draft the Knight News Challenge proposal, and we intend to reach out to many more in the coming weeks: * Sudo Mesh, launching the People's Open Network in Oakland, CA * Kansas City Freedom Network, in close alliance with the Free Network Foundation in Kansas City, MO. * wlan-slovenija across Slovenia and connecting Austria and Croatia! * Altermundi in Argentina * Guifi.net in Catalonia * Freifunk in Germany * Ninux in Italy * MedellinLibre in Medellin, Columbia * Village Telco in South Africa * Fédération FDN in France Many thanks for reading - please share with any relevant individuals and mailing lists you can think of!
