'''Name: Adam Shand'''[[BR]] Email: adam@personaltelco.net '''How It All Got Started:''' After reading about ConsumeTheNet on SlashDot I sent an email message to the local Linux users group asking if anyone was interested in starting a CommunityNetwork and quickly found out that a lot of people were interested. Shortly there after there was a MailingList and this web site and I rapidly found myself organizing a local group trying to build ["MAN"]s and ["NAN"]s in PortlandOregon. So far it's been a riot, we've gotten more done then I ever imagined. |

I'm certainly hope it's news, but I'm not sure exactly what your asking. If you're asking why it wasn't listed here it's because I hadn't gotten around to it. Most of my stuff goes [http://www.spack.org/index.cgi/AdamShand over here] now. -- Adam. |
