Hi all,
Here is some research on affordable access to broadband that Sascha
Meinrath, a true pioneer of community networks, is doing in Pennsylvania.

Affordable access to Internet in rural areas is a challenge everywhere.

Apologies for the wide posting but I feel like these lists have the kind of
people we're looking for! Feel free to forward on if there are other
communities that could be interested.
The ICTD Research Group at the University of Washington’s Allen School of
Computer Science and Engineering (http://ictd.cs.washington.edu/) is
seeking qualified students, both from the US and abroad, with an interest
in universal internet access and community networking to apply to the PhD
program in computer networking. The ICTD group, led by Professors Kurtis
Heimerl and Richard Anderson, has long worked on the problems of Universal
Internet Access internationally, with deployments and projects in both the
rural Philippines (in partnership with the University of the Philippines)
and Indonesia (in partnership with Ob Anggen). As our research shifts to
wide-area LTE networks and the infrastructure of repair, we want to find
more motivated and passionate students with interest and capacity in the
space. There is a particular interest in students with personal experience
with hard connectivity problems.
If interested, please visit the UWCSE admissions page (
https://www.cs.washington.edu/academics/phd). All students admitted to the
Allen School Ph.D. program are guaranteed funding for 3 years in the form
of a research assistantship, teaching assistantship or fellowship. All or
most of the cost of tuition is covered by the assistantship or fellowship.
If you have any questions, please direct them to Professor Kurtis Heimerl <
kheimerl(a)cs.washington.edu>.

Hi all,
I think I forgot to share the link to the CN Manual here, due to IGF hectic days...
Here is the open access version of the Community Network Manual http://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/dspace/handle/10438/25696
Feel free to share it as widely as you want ;)
It has been great to seeing you at in Paris!
All the best
Luca
Hi all,
I'm in still in Paris, after a fruitful IGF and going through some of the
contacts that I pointed to the DC3 mailing list.
I think nothing has happened on the website for quite some time and I would
like to point out, that I still have a sister site for the DC3 with
Wordpress that I got up for the IGF in Geneva last year. https://comcon.nu
I paid the subscription to it very recently and updated the site plugins,
theme etc.
I think we'd really need to get up to speed with all our new developments
and post them on the website. As I understood, it was seen that Wordpress
would enable more people to update the site so I think we should share some
credentials to trusted people in this mailing list, so we can keep
up-to-date with a crowd effort and keep informing our members and activists
and new interested people especially. Nobody should have to do this on
their own.
We're hardly using our Twitter or Facebook pages either. They should post
something general at least once a month, when we hear of new projects,
publish research or setup events.

Dear all,
At netCommons.eu, we're expanding on the open letter from last year [1]
to move towards guidelines to European policy-makers on steps that can
be taken to support the development of Community Networks and adapt the
regulatory framework accordingly. The draft document takes stock of the
new rules agreed upon at the EU level as a result of our work with
European CNs and digital rights groups, using these provisions as a
platform to start a dialogue between CNs across Europe and regulators.
We will be releasing that policy brief next month. In the meantime, any
comment/feedback would be greatly appreciated.
