Dear netCommons colleagues,

I hope the list is still working, just to share Luca's news on CNs policy recognition, and to confirm that we are still eagerly waiting for the printing of the book.

After lots of editorial work last spring and summer and fall, the PDF with beautiful images can be downloaded (https://netcommons.eu/?q=news/release-netcommons-hands-guide-community-networks) since right before Christmas, and except a few tweets, we were planning to wait for the print to arrive to do some promotion - the print still hasn't arrived and we are still completely unaware of how long it will take...!

Hope everybody is doing well,
All the best,
Mélanie & Félix

Dear colleagues,


I would like to share some excellent news from Brazil, that has also a very positive impact on the IGF and its work.


The Brazilian Telecoms Regulator ANATEL has explicitly and officially recognized Community Networks as an option for Internet access in Brazil and, while doing so, and explicitly mentions (and links) “The Community Network Manual” (2018 outcome of the IGF Dynamic Coalition on Community Connectivity) in the rational for this decision. https://www.anatel.gov.br/setorregulado/component/content/article/2-uncategorised/528-redes-comunitarias


This is, to date, the biggest country on hearth explicitly recognising the value of CNs. The creation of CNs in Brazil was already possible, as simplified ISPs, since 2017 (see our study here on CN in Latin America here https://www.internetsociety.org/resources/doc/2018/community-networks-in-latin-america/ ) but this is the first time ANATEL officially uses the CN terminology providing both legal and technical guidance (using the CN Manual!) on how to create them.


This is not only important for Brazil but also represent another*piece of concrete evidence that the IGF is not a mere talking shop and when people want to use the IGF process to produce meaningful outcomes, they can. And, importantly, IGF outputs can have real impact on digital policies.


My sincerest congratulations to ALL those who dedicated time to development and use of the CN Manual, particularly the members of the IGF Dynamic Coalition on Community Connectivity that are on on this list!


All the best


Luca
