I spoke with Diana Nucera from the Detroit CN and she

interested in joining the group and discussion. She also recommended
the Rise NYC network, which apparently is more of a CN then NYC
mesh.
Contacts are in the pad.
I have contacted Freifunk people, they are willing to join and asked
about some details. I clarified those and asked them to please fill in
the "form" we proposed a little while ago so the Council can formally
evaluate their participation.
I have also asked Roger from Guifi.net to send in the same "form", as a
follow-up to the e-mail where he asked about joining the CNSIG.
I feel that it would be great if after inviting those candidates that
seem more obvious we could focus on reaching out to Community Networks
that are less mainstream, have less press coverage but they are out
there, doing day to day work on the ground. Quoting Sol:
On the other hand, I think it will be valuable to
reach out to CNs
that are perhaps not represented in other groups and whose input has
not been considered before. My point here I guess is that we don't
only end up reaching to the organisations we all know, but research
further to incorporate others more "out of the loop" - maybe aiming
at some regional diversity but mainly to push ourselves to go further
than the norm.
Cheers!
