Hi everyone,
I'm being asked by Código Sur if we want to keep the website online
and/or migrate it to WordPress on the same infrastruture.
Please advise.
Cheers!

Hi everyone,
I want to share this article
<https://ssir.org/articles/entry/scaling_power_for_global_prosperity#> with
you all about ending energy poverty and what is needed to address
electrification. I particularly liked this paragraph (emphasis mine):
*"The mobile phone revolution is often cited as an example that can be
replicated for energy. But mobile communications technology actually
exemplifies the need for high-energy systems. Charging phone batteries
accounts for less than 1 percent of the energy required for a smartphone to
operate. The other 99 percent is needed by the wider economy to manufacture
the phone, and to run the cell towers and data centers that enable the
phone to function. The mobile phone is a high-energy technology
masquerading as a low-energy one."*
Best,
-Michael
Dear all,

Dear all,
The netCommons.eu research project has finished and one of its final outputs will be an accessible book on CNs written with the "booksprint" methodology over a week at Vic in Catalonia, the birthplace of guifi.net.
It was first submitted as a project report and will soon be published by APC as a normal book in the coming months.
Before starting the copy-editing process, the editors (Felix Treguer and Melanie Du Long de Rosnay) thought to give a chance to the overall community
to review the draft.
Significant changes cannot be made at this time, but it would be very much appreciated if you could:
- spot possible factual mistakes, or
- suggest to add a missing reference, a definition, an appendix
- possibly propose a short story (but be sure to speak to the editors first),
- last but not least: suggest a better title for the book
The deadline for your feedback/input is March 13th.
The book was initially co-written on google docs (sorry :-)), transferred to LaTeX, and back to google doc (with some problems) here:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qOloaymk0meG33OZ0BSJEEQZy8VcUnWO1uLwSbK…
Thanks in advance!
On behalf of the booksprint team,

my understanding is that the Maori were granted 2G spectrum some years
back but more recently when they requested the same for 4G they were
told either no or wait and that has not been resolved to this day.
