The OTI is funding projects for mesh network
deployment, here is
the call:
https://commotionwireless.net/blog/2014/10/08/call-for-proposals-small-gran…
It looks like they expect the people who apply to use Commotion,
but maybe I'm wrong. If someone here has more information it would
be appreciated.
+1 to applying, seems vicky already made contact? can you give more
details?

maybe it's easier to arrange a donation or
grant, in particular,
we've been considering applying as Libre-Mesh collective to the
"CfP on International Commotion projects", to add some commotion
nodes on our current real-life networks, in order to facilitate
local services and content, adding value to the neighbourhood
when the internet goes offline
that would probably involve putting our crazy
antennas on the
nodes, so part of the project would be thoroughly documenting
that.
if it sounds reasonable, we can write a proper
proposal to
commotion-grants(a)opentechinstitute.org but i'd be interested in
having an early feedback from you on the idea :)
I was hoping you all would be interested in applying for a grant!
Actually, someone from Spain who works with you has contacted us
about the program - Victoria Jiménez.
If you want, we can set up an initial call or discussion about
your proposal idea - or you can write to the e-mail with initial
questions. Otherwise, just send in a proposal idea at any time -
the deadlines are just helpful guideposts, you can submit
whenever.
