This workshop is an effort to narrow the gap between community networks and the academia. It is aimed to be a place for exchanging knowledge and for exploring collaborations. We are convinced that putting together the wide field experience and the innovative ideas and proposals of the communities with the research resources and methodologies of the academia must be beneficial for both sides. Unfortunately academic conferences are not cheap, but we don't want the cost to be an inconvenient for any community member to not submit a paper. We have gathered some budget to sponsor (at least partially) travelling costs and registration fees. Please send me an e-mail if you need financial assistance. This is the second edition of the workshop, and if we want to keep it in the future we must make sure that this edition is, at least, as successful as </pre> Roger Baig Viñas 2013-05-09T16:21:46 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.politics.activism.wsfii.general/1580 <pre>http://mississaugasaccountants.com/oanyhknkrlktaxk.php Breakthrough Diet Exposed: Celebrity Doctor Uncovers The "Holy Grail of Weight Loss" _______________________________________________ wsfii-discuss mailing list wsfii-discuss&lt; at &gt;lists.okfn.org http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/wsfii-discuss Unsubscribe: http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/options/wsfii-discuss </pre> hugh barnard 2013-05-09T11:03:19 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.politics.activism.wsfii.general/1576 <pre>Hi everyone, wow, it's more than a decade since many of us started to implement the idea of free information infrastructures into wifi based community networks arround the globe. Congratulations to all! Back in 2002 people from London (consume.net), Denmark (wire.less.dk) and Berlin (bootlab.org) lauched a first European get together - the BERLON meeting. After another event in Copenhagen in early 2003 we officially launched freifunk.net. In September 2003 freifunk.net organized the first international summer convention at the c-base in Berlin. And with many joined forces this was the starting point for 'fresh air - free networks' in Djursland, Denmark, where WSFII was born. At the same time Sacha Meinrath and others gathered the movement in the US which has turned into the 'International Summit for Community Wireless Networks' (IS4CWN). Now, after 10 years, together with the team from IS4CWN from the US, we are planning for a really big international get together in Berlin again to celebrate and debate</pre> Juergen Neumann 2013-04-18T12:11:49 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.politics.activism.wsfii.general/1557 <pre> Sorry for cross-posting, and in English for a wider audience. Last friday, colleagues from a community wireless which is cooperating with us in a small village in Argentina got a visit from representatives of the CNC (Comisión Nacional de las Comunicaciones). Seems that the inspection was caused by a claim from Telecom, a local mobile operator affiliated to Movistar (Telefonica), arguing that was interfering to their backbone links. The inspected nodes are actually composed by low cost wifi routers, working al 2.4 band, using the Argentinian regulatory domain, which is region 2 of the UIT (same as in the US), with a power between 50mW and 100mW and serving Internet to a primary school, and some families in a low-income neighborhood. Our colleagues are very much concerned because of the lack of regulations in Argentina. Looks like those CNC officials will come back next Thursday asking for shutting down the nodes, or even confiscation of the equipment. Although wifi equipment has been widely </pre> Ramon Roca 2012-11-25T16:42:52 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.politics.activism.wsfii.general/1556 <pre>REMINDER: there are still some tickets left for the workshops, please add yourself to the waitinglist. dear all, 'besides the screen' (bts) 2012 will be held in london, around goldsmiths college and the dekspace media lab, from november 29 to december 2. the full programme of the 'besides the screen' 2012 international conference is now online, please visit: http://bts.re. we are happy to announce that the registrations for the 'besides the screen' conference, workshops, screenings, and performances are now open. please visit: http://www.bts.re/node/133 (note that places on the workshops are limited, thus please add your name to the waitinglist). bts is an event about the continuing transformation of audiovisual media practices. the 2012 edition will have a number of panels, workshops and screenings – plus keynotes by professor janet harbord (queen mary university) and dr. charlotte crofts (uwe-bristol). check http://www.bts.re/node/133 in order to register for these activities. you are als</pre> adnan hadzi 2012-11-22T12:29:57 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.politics.activism.wsfii.general/1555 <pre>You are invited to the preview screening of Bitter Lemons, directed and produced by Adnan Hadzi and Lennaart van Oldenborgh Date: 29th of November 2012 Time: 19:00 Location: Goldsmiths, University of London, Screen NAB, LG01, Lewisham Way, London SE14 6NW Register for a free ticket here: https://www.eventbrite.com/event/4778762407?ref=ebtnebregn# Bitter Lemons is an observational documentary examining life in two rural villages on either side of the UN-administered buffer zone in western Cyprus in the years between 2006 and 2009, after border crossings opened between the two sides.

In the first stages of the project we'll be focusing only on providing internal calls in the network and designing with the local institutions the prices of these calls as for making the maintenance of the network sustainable. Together with the deployment we want to understand the socio-economic impact that our intervention will cause in the community, so I was wondering whether any of f you know of any assessment of the socio-enconomic impact of a deployed community wireless networks (I dont mind if they were rural or urban, "north" or "south")? Thank you very much in advance Carlos </pre> Carlos Rey-Moreno 2012-06-12T04:55:43 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.politics.activism.wsfii.general/1544 <pre>Hi! (Dreadfully sorry for x-posting. You might receive multiple copies of this mail. But the deadline is approaching rapidly. I'd rather annoy some individuals by x-posting than exclude many. The summit really is a super cool chance for all of us and all who believe in self-governed community networks). What? -------- The wireless summit (www.wirelesssummit.org, "IS4CWN") is the only truly international event where community wireless networks from every continent of this earth (except for maybe Antarctica) come together every couple of years. Some have referred to the IS4CWNs as the "UN of community wireless networks" . More details below. The last one took place in Vienna in 2010, this time it is going to take place in Barcelona. Here is the current call for panel-proposals. Please re-tweet and re-distribute this mail in your respective communities and mailing lists! Thanks very much. Aaron.

To start with , just a one node network - which will expand as per user requirements and usage. The node will have a Linksys wrt54gl router and a computer to store / serve the data ! This is for a very small educational campus - with few students and some itinerant travellers and researchers. There will be research data / information and other documents that would be available on this server. The idea being that the user should be able to see (browse) / download and upload data and information. We don't expect much load initially - We are also not expecting to provide internet access through this WLAN at the start (maybe at a later date). We also don't expect the networked users to connect to each other, it won't be a user to user communication medium. (again atleast not in the initial phases) The only possibility of users interacting with each other is "maybe" through a wiki kind of mode.

I refer to mesh clouds to some areas that uses "dinamic routing protocols" like OLSR or bmx, although at least one BGP AS also has a default route. All these areas are reacheable A real life exemple, a local ISP serves "full" internet connectivity to clients, the ISP provides a PPTP server and all the clients configure their PPP data to connect to that server, if everything is OK clients get a default route inside their LAN The plugin https://addons.mozilla.org/ca/firefox/addon/guifiproxy/ not relates to routing, it's just an easy to change proxy settings. Since most of the internet connectivity to guifi.net users relay on proxy-servers we developed a what we call proxy-federation, one user can use its zone proxy server but also all the others feder</pre> Albert Homs i Gall 2012-02-03T10:21:11 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.politics.activism.wsfii.general/1532 <pre>////////////////////////////////////////////// nohup / noise=noise Friday 16^th December 8pm -- late ////////////////////////////////////////////// nnnnn, Unit 73a Regent Studios 8 Andrew's Road London E8 4QN £5 suggested donation pay more if you can afford it, less if you can't //rough bar// an evening of ghost architecture, suicide computing, abject music, audiovisual programing, and reanimated electronics jjjemp http://xxn.org.uk/ &lt;http://xxn.org.uk/doku.php&gt; nihal yesil http://www.nihalyesilstudio.com/ http://evenpress.org james stevens &amp; adnan hadzi http://dek.spc.org rob canning &amp; antonios galanopoulos http://goto10.org/ " " [sic] tim goldie http://timgoldie.blogspot.com/ ewa justka http://vimeo.com/23684344 ryan jordan http://ryanjordan.org/ dj anomie http://www.metamute.org/site-info/mute-people _______________________________________________ wsfii-discuss mailing list wsfii-discuss&lt; at &gt;lists.okfn.org http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/wsfii-discuss </pre> adnan hadzi 2011-12-11T18:47:14 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.politics.activism.wsfii.general/1527 <pre>Hi Friends , hope all is well you side ! needed some advice of which wi-fi router would be a good one to buy (in India) - with the following specs - one in which the firmware can be upgraded (am thinking to the openwrt firmware - unless there is a better firmware for a community mesh network) - possibility to powered by solar This wifi router would be test router , initially just for a home network and later on this would be scaled up to more nodes. a friend suggested the Linksys WRT54gh - retailing for Rs 2000 (in India).
