The project is to spread locally-managed community wireless mesh networks around the country. I'll teach local technologists and community organizers how to use regular Wi-Fi routers and free, open source software to build their own community Internet infrastructure.
The project will use Commotion, a free, open source software project designed to make it easy for anyone to set up their own mesh network. We'll share tools and methods for participatory technology pedagogy, and the routers that we set up together will remain with the locals to seed their own mesh networks. With these seeds spread, people in each city can continue to grow locally-managed Internet networks and spur innovation on a shared platform accessible to any resident.

Not really sure if this is useful or not, but I'd be willing to donate a spot on my roof for an antenna. I'm part way up the hills, and have a line of sight view of Lake Merritt, chunks of downtown, and a wide swath of the flats of Oakland, Emeryville, and Berkeley. Not sure if I can see the sudoroom, as it is probably obscured by some taller buildings between here and there.Is this useful? Perhaps as a relay between different neighborhoods or something?-steve

We've done tests of over a mile using directional antennas. That's good for backhaul links but in the neighborhood you need a dense mesh of omnidirectional antennas.
