People's Open Network (peoplesopen.net) is the name of the network. The network is not controlled by sudo mesh, but sud omesh runs a wifi mesh network that is part of People's Open Network. The only thing required for people or organizations to be part of peoplesopen.net is that they abide by the Network Commons License (currently being worked out). We are filing for a trademark for People's Open Network so we can prevent people from calling themselves People's Open Network if they do not abide by the NCL. We are not yet sure who the "we" are in this case. We would like peoplesopen.net to be as decoupled as possible from sudomesh without any power other than to enforce that people only use the name if their networks are NCL-compatible.
