[Mesh] This Week in Mesh!

[Jenny Ryan]

Hi all!

Thought I might start sharing what's been getting added to our wiki each
week, as well as general mesh-related links I come across. Feel free to add
to this thread!

*Wiki:*

   - Tunabananas added Mesh/Oakland
<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/Oakland>for Oakland-specific data.
Currently this links to a spreadsheet of local
   organizations [schools, churches, etc] as well as a 157-page document from
   2009 on the feasibility of providing municipal wifi in Oakland.
   - Tunabananas updated
Mesh/Other_mesh_projects<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/Other_mesh_projects>with
more info on the abrupt rise and seeming fall of SF Lan.
   - Juul created Mesh/Firmware
<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/Firmware>with lots of ideas and plans
for the firmware we'll be developing for the
   mesh!
   - MaxB added some system configuration details on the
Mesh/BATMAN-adv<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/BATMAN-adv>page.
   - Tunabananas updated Meeting
Minutes<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/04_July_2013>with last week's
minutes.
   - Tunabananas created Mesh/Naming
<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/Naming>to document potential names for
our group.
   - Juul created Mesh/Bylaws <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/Bylaws> - we
   could **really** use some feedback and input on these potential bylaws
   so we can become a 501(c)3!
   - Mitar added information about wlan-slovenia to
Mesh/Other_mesh_projects<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/Other_mesh_projects>
