Similar goals to us, but no specific implementations - just gathering people and money together to make a more affordable, accessible internet. Been around about 3 years, very well-connected. She reached out to Marc - was present at the Mozilla panel. Very interested in DisasterRadio, wants to connect us to sources of funding<br /> * marc: DisasterRadio had issues with memory leak - but Grant conquered it! <br /> ** grant: after 3 nights of hacking on it. Issue was firmware was outdated. was a bug in the nodemcu firmware exacerbated by the tcp/ip websocket.<br /> *** marc: in the meantime, tried a bunch of different things on the ESPs. ended up with the arduino framework for esp286 has a nice firmware that supports web sockets. uploaded a tiny web app, loaded very quickly. programmed an arduino to become an spi client, connected an arduino to an esp, communicated at 2B/s (about 8x faster than expected). we have everything we need. but good that we can use nodemcu when we want to. hoping to get it working tonight. <br /> **** grant: check out platform.io<br /> <br /> == byoi workshop ==<br /> * jorrit: things to show for next BYOI workshop (sep 23): DisasterRadio prototype. last time we had a couple of stations, preceded by some short talks (what/why/how). last time we had booths for flashing nodes, gardenmesh, radio wave propagation, crimping, node flashing. <br /> ** jehan: will have althea(?) set up<br /> *** other ideas: disasterradio, node flashing, talk on how the internet works, project gardenmesh data, 5 minutes per station/project<br /> **** github repo: sudomesh/propaganda<br /> * sierk: talked to fnb and they're down to bring the bike-powered smoothie blender. donations for FNB.<br /> * jorrit: liked hilary's thing last time, &quot;Q and not A&quot;<br /> * marc: would like to give a slightly longer talk than last time, clarify misconceptions for new folks. would like to float next time (no station) and do some videorecording<br /> * sierk: take photos of the whiteboard of questions next time. also video the whole thing. also the node mounts. <br /> <br /> Roles:<br /> * catering: scott &amp; sierk<br /> * schedule: jehan<br /> * flyer: sierk (update) &amp; jenny (print)<br /> * videography: marc &amp; eve<br /> <br /> == gardenmesh ==<br /> * mario: two facilities that are open to hosting prototypes, also the isabel folks were open to us putting a node on their roof in treasure island<br /> <br /> == sunday node mount ==<br /> * continue at hearth and tigermonkey<br /> * next mount - perhaps at Isabel on Treasure Island?<br /> * larry (last week) had lots of good comments/advice - inquired about insurance. grant will try to summarize and send to the list. <br /> <br /> == website ==<br /> * folks who want to work on it: grant, bullit, sierk, jenny<br /> <br /> = breakout groups =<br /> * new folks: jorrit / grant<br /> * outreach / website<br /> <br /> == 510(c)(3) application ==<br /> * jenny: Close to finished.
