==========================================================
The upcoming 'Wireless Battle of the Mesh' event will take place from
Mon 8th - Sun 14th of July in "Le 6B" in Saint-Denis, near Paris.
The event aims to bring together people from across the globe who are
interested in community networks,including wireless mesh network
technologies, fiber infrastructure, Do-It-Yourself Internet Access
Providers, and more generally how to create and maintain a thriving
community of people involved in building their own networks.
This year, we would like to expand the topics beyond wireless, with a
dual focus on fiber and community.
We envision 7 days full of expert presentations, practical workshops,
late-night hacking sessions, and fruitful discussions:
whether you are a mesh networking enthusiast, community networking
activist, protocol developer, or have an interest in networking in
general, come and join us!
