Ninux.org nel Community Networks SIG di Internet Society

Thursday, March 29th, 2018

Ninux.org è nel CNSIG, un gruppo all’interno di ISOC di cui fanno parte community network di tutto il mondo che ha lo scopo di “sviluppare, rinforzare e promuovere il modello delle community network, preparare nuove strategie, condividere esperienze e conoscenze, discutere questioni legali e politiche e esprimere la propria visione”. Il CNSIG Ha un consiglio esecutivo e dei gruppi di lavoro (WG) su questioni legali, tecniche, formazione, impatto sociale.

Pensiamo che la creazione di un gruppo internazionale come il CNSIG possa favorire la crescita delle community network, favorirne la crescita e portare la nostra voce nelle sedi in cui vengono prese le decisioni.

Monday, March 26th, 2018

ninux.org endorses “Mesh is in the air” – this year mesh up of the “Wireless Battle of the Mesh” and “Wireless Community Weekend”

We keep the approach to test the performance of different routing protocols for ad-hoc networks and combine it with the celebration of the 15th anniversary of the yearly Freifunk community get together. The mix becomes a global gathering of wifi tech experts, mesh developers and community networkers that join the event to hack, test, discuss, explain, learn and barbecue at c-base, Berlin’s famous hack-space-station.

If you are a mesh networking enthusiast, community activist, have an interest in wifi or dynamic routing protocols, you can’t miss this event!
So check out our continuously updated information about the event at https://www.wireless-meshup.org

The wireless mesh-up is free of charge and open for all, every year we strive to keep participation costs low by negotiating deals for accommodation and food.
