Desired outcome of conversation:
*Clarity on current state + idea
*Potentially a time set for deployment along with actionitems.
*Phase developments / patterns: From scouting, to camper, to tent site to
*Pickup truck, folks to pick up campers, places to put them.
**Eg Adeline empty lot, Matt's street in Oakland, a few spots in SF
**Construction materials, furnishings, servers

== Basic idea ==
Using campers for establishing beach head at an empty piece of land. Sort of a basecamp to work from - once you got a camper there, you can go there and hang out.


==SKD (Sudo Fucking Do (it))==
=== Process ===
*Go to lot and prepare road
*Create foundation (concrete?) for camper
*Bring it in!
 
=== Once successfully deployed ... ===
*Build a fence
*Create a tent-structure
 
==Campers as mini-hackerspaces==
Patterns of hackerspaces:
*Scout
*Potential mothership addition in caravan + community?
 
What is the minimum 'stuff' required for X people to go out there and hack for 72 hours?
 
== Currently... ==
*Tim has 2 campers and properties in CA.
*We can gather free materials for everything we need to establish a wikitown, as long as we got infrastructure to get it (trucks and people) and space to store it.
 
=== Potential Properties to Pilot on ===
In CA, there are several in the high desert, less than 2 hours from LA. There are 2 in Lake country, and three in North East California not far from the Oregon and Nevada border.
