[Battlemesh] [guifi-rdes] Wireless Battle Mesh (WBM) v4 in Barcelona area early September?

[Roger Baig Viñas]

Hi all,

This goes mainly to my guifi community but I also cross post it to the
battlemesh mailing list mainly to let all know what I'm saying.

Now, after the big success or WBMv3, and that Juliusz has already
given the closing talk, after a short Benjamin's presentation it is
clear that the general feeling is that the ideal frequency for these
meetings should be yearly, so now, we, as guifi community, must decide
whether we take the challenge to host the next Wireless Battle of the
Mesh. And my votes goes to "yes" (could it be different?) and offer
myself as a volunteer.

In the meanwhile I forward you Benjamin invitation to a not yet given
name event in South Belgium next September.

And now lake time... (will we have want in Catalunya????)

Best regards.
