Alas, in 
http://rmf.vc/IEEEMobileEdge I wrote about the problem of thinking
about an edge. I started using the term "first square mile" as a play on
last/first to distinguish it from the idea of the Internet as something
delivered in pipes to shift it to a common infrastructure we own locally and
then expand from there.
The challenge we face is that, at this point, there is a lot of attention
being paid to the gear in order to get things to work. But the important
goal is to make it possible to completely ignore the gear and just be
connected between any two end points. I see this as a problem of economics
-- how do we get the benefits of an enabling infrastructure without making
it all about the details of the infrastructure.

You can always substitute "at the edge", "at the community level",
"at the
user's premises" etc etc for "in the last mile", if "last
km" does not sound
right for traditional reasons. :-)

  This is a question I sometimes ask  are terms like
last mile 
 idiomatic rather than referring to an actual mile? Even worse is when 
 you have a naïve translator writing about the last 1.6 km. If indeed 
 last mile is idiomatic then first square mile works and first 
 km2 isnt quite the same play on meme.

 Hi Leandro,
 
 I agree with substituting square miles with km. Metric systems seems 
 indeed slightly more widespread :)
 
  
 
http://www.zmescience.com/other/map-of-countries-officially-not-using-
 the-me
 tric-system/
 
  
 
 also a good idea to merge 2.e and 2.f (free peering and transit)
 
  
 
 As regards 2.c (open design) and 2.g (free and open software and 
 tech), I think you raise a good point I would not consider them as 
 redundant. On the contrary, I would rather re-order them to stress 
 that CN should be based on the use of free and open software and tech 
 AND the resulting design should ALSO be published and accessible to 
 everyone. So I suggest moving 2.g (free and open software and tech) right 
before
open design.
  
  
 
 As regards, logistics, we have 5 confirmed events the Pre-event and 
 Disco-Tech, on 5 Dec; our workshop (N 238 on Community Connectivity) 
 and the
 DC3 annual meeting on 7 Dec;  and the Post-IGF event

 Hi, edits, comments and questions:
 
 I'd remove "of equal importance". It's a bit obvious/redundant
(marked 
 but not removed)
 
 capitalized Internet, i18n: mile -> Km
 
 Proposed (but not done):
 
 e and f could be merged to make it more compact and readable:
 
 e+f) Free traffic: transit and peering to other networks in reciprocal 
 e+terms
 
 g) as a preference comes directly from c) I'd remove
 
 Alternative to the current h) to follow the pattern of: x) point:
 description
 h) safety: security and privacy in the design and operation
 
 
 Logistics:
 - We finally don't have pre-event/day-0 event? (5/12)
 
 - Anything to prepare/discuss for our workshop during IGF?
 
 - I understand we still have the post-event on Saturday 10th on 
 Community Nets. Any idea for the program to discuss?
  + We'd like to spend with you some time discussing training materials 
 about community networks we're preparing, among other topics.
  + In the netcommons.eu project we've produced several studies that we 
 can outline, and get help to generalize from a mostly European focus.
 
 Any suggestion about accommodation? :-)
 
 See you in Guadalajara, Leandro.

 Hi Nico,
 You are rising a valid point.
 Perhaps (h) could be slightly rephrased as follows
  
 h)      the consideration of security and privacy concerns while designing
 and operating the network

 regarding point h) security and privacy are components of network 
 design and operation.
  
 ... although this sounds good, I don't see it generally implemented in 
 most community networks I know of.
  
 This could be a point for discussion for the future, but it seems 
 incorrect (from our perspective) to express it in this way right now.
  
 Maybe Christian, who added it has other information which makes this a 
 valid point for the definition right now.
 Maybe if we rephrase it to express an intention instead of something 
 that's currently being done it is ok.
  
 I also added on point c) of the Policy section something regarding 
 Dynamic Spectrum for secondary use... this is not exactly unlicensed 
 spectrum so I think the distintion is important.
  
  
 cheers!
 Nico

 Dear all,
  
 Many thanks for your inputs on the Declaration.
  
 I have tried to slightly edit the text (particularly the preamble) to 
 improve readability.
  
 I hope all comments are now reflected properly, particularly the 
 latest comments provided by Federica, Coenraad and Marcelo. Please do 
 not hesitate to modify the text using the pad or share any further 
 feedback *by 25 October*.
