Dear All,
It's a great idea to organize the same in India. As Sarbani Ma'am is in San
Fransisco, we will get back to you all as soon she will be back.
Thanks and Regards

Hi all!
New to this group, but a relative 'intermediate' in the community wireless
realm.. As a relatively hasty intro, I work on the People's Open Network
<https://peoplesopen.net> in Oakland, California :) Very happy to be here!
At the Battlemesh v10 in Austria
<https://www.battlemesh.org/BattleMeshV10> last year, I recall multiple
discussions re: hosting the next convening in possibly:
* Oakland, California (I'm a co-founder of the Omni Commons
<https://omnicommons.org>, a large collective space here that could
likely accommodate such an event) - this was largely disagreeable given the
US' stringent visa requirements for Central & South Americans in particular
- tho there is a growing North American federation of community/mesh
wireless networks and I'm looking forward to the *State of Our Networks *
conference <https://ournetworks.ca> being hosted by Toronto Wireless in
Canada this July!)http://coolab.org [i apologize in advance for using so
much nationalist/colonialist terminology :/ please help me improve!]
* Madurai region of India - large educational space proposed by Senthil,.
who gave this talk <http:///> at Battlemesh in 2017 on working with a
200+ class of young women learning to code, and using mesh to further the
reach of educational curriculae in rural parts of India -
http://openfreenet.org
* Several folks spoke from South America, if I recall correctly...was it
Gui or Nico Pace from Altermundi in Argentina?
** ... and Rodrigo from Brazil? [i know, it's a big place - but he was
working on building networks to connect favelas all over the country..] -
can't remember if he had a particular space in mind, and he warned many
areas (particularly Sao Paulo) can be quite dangerous to tourists. -
http://coolab.org
Big fan of any options that entail my saving up to travel to either South
America or India toward building networks for a more libre future!

Hi all,
I support Monic's point about having the global summit in India - hosts
willing. I think its important that we diversify (the continent) and I
think the global South is a good place to focus on.
To Nico's point on piggy-backing, Sarbani and Jaspreet, how do you feel
about hosting (with help) a CN global summit in 2019? If interested, is
there any event on which we could plan this Summit that could make the
event better attendance/ lower cost?
Thanks, Sol
