INTRODUCTIONS

Roll call: almost everybody has been using the nodes!

About half of the attendees were new faces. Some have APs at:

  • 36th and Madison.
  • Hawthorne Area.
  • South Park Blocks.
  • PSU possibilities?

GENERAL MEETING

Put Em Up! Location Location Location Location......even if it is not real accessible, each node on the map represents another possibility for linking nodes to nodes. So get 'em up and note your location on the node map.

Sam Churchill announces launch of www.dailywireless.org, as a new source of all things wireless. Log on and check it out.

Initial run of 10 free-geek boxen successful, and new links with FreeGeek are being forged and developed. If you have a great location, but need experience and equipment, post to the list and make your voice heard. Free Geek is busy during the day, so bug them off-hours.

An open portal, otherwise called an active portal, is in use at the Pioneer Square node, and is the model for personal telco nodes. NoCat is a version of an active portal.

Erik W. discussed his forays and efforts to develop MetaCat. MetaCat is to reproduce the functionality of NoCatAuth. Written in C to reduce the overhead required with Perl. The upshot is to fit everything on a Musenki box with 4MB of Flash and 32 Mb of RAM.
