Hi all, I just wanted to share that we have finally been granted operator licence in Argentina. This is the first licence for community networks in our country. Here's the licence: http://blog.altermundi.net/media/uploads/licenciaaltermundi-1895-18_resol.p… And this is the resolution that made it possible: http://servicios.infoleg.gob.ar/infolegInternet/anexos/310000-314999/313590… On another note, LibreRouter has been trending (top 10) in Hacker News all day: https://news.ycombinator.com/ come share some love :) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18715230 Cheers!

Community Network Manual Downloaded more than 3200 times!!!

by Luca Belli

Hi all, I just wanted to share a very happy note that allows us to conclude the year with satisfaction and optimism. Yesterday, my colleagues that manage the FGV digital library wrote me to let me know the Community Network Manual (http://bitly.com/CNmanual ) has been downloaded 3104 times, and counting, since its presentation at the IGF in mid-November (actually, the document stats show it was downloaded 2689 times only in the last two weeks of November and an extra 170 times only yesterday http://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/dspace/handle/10438/25696/statistics ) It is really great to see how fruitful our work has been and that the excellent work that each of you is doing is becoming more and more visible, interesting and relevant for those who are looking for new options to expand connectivity. With this very positive note, I wish all of you an excellent end of 2018, telling you that it has been truly excellent to meeting, exchanging ideas and learning from you over this year, and being sure that 2019 will be an even more productive and successful year for our community All the best Luca [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_direito_rio.jpg] Luca Belli, PhD Professor of Internet Governance and Regulation [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_tel.jpg]+55 21 3799 5763 t @1lucabelli<https://twitter.com/1lucabelli> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_direito_rio_map.j… de Botafogo, 190 13º andar Botafogo - Rio de Janeiro, RJ - CEP: 22250-900 [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_ass_email.jpg] luca.belli(a)fgv.br<mailto:luca.belli@fgv.br> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_ass_url.jpg]inter… <https://internet-governance.fgv.br/>
