Mesh Network Project

Just wondering if there is any interest here in helping deploy an experimental, community controlled Mesh Network in Fairfax (or anywhere in NoVa, really).

For questions about Mesh, begin your journey here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_networking

We will need Routers, CAT-5 or higher, omni-antennas, directional antennas, mass configuration parties, site mapping, and deployment. I know this sounds like a lot, but it really isn't that crazy. This is an experiment to test the capability of nascent "networkers" in an affluent area to conceive, configure, and deploy a working local Mesh. Proliferation and upkeep will be a future endeavour.

Pls comment here if you are interested. If you have any questions, please try to find your answer first, as a big part of this is that the launch team is not seasoned or proffesional.
