*A major focus of the project is to experiment with recycled and donated hardware for the purposes of designing mesh solutions at minimal cost. Experimentation with various firmwares (eg; Commotion, Freifunk, Byzantium) and protocols (eg; OLSRd, batman-adv, Babel) using off-the-shelf and upcycled hardware (eg; donated routers and satellite dishes) will be extensively documented. Well-designed instructables/comics will incorporate use cases, user stories, and DIY building processes in an effort to engage everyday folks to experiment with mesh technology in their local neighborhoods. | *A major focus of the project is to experiment with recycled and donated hardware for the purposes of designing mesh solutions at minimal cost.

==Getting municipal actors to support the mesh== | |||
*Over time, we expect municipal actors (people working for local governments, libraries, schools, etc.) to see the mesh as an ally in efforts to bridge the digital divide. We are creating a [[intro for municipal actors|short introduction to the project]] specifically for municipal actors explaining why they should care about the project and what they can do to support it. | |||
