The application period for organization opened 2 days ago. To apply successful as organization, we also need to provide an updated list of project ideas. These ideas are a base for students to develop their proposal. Please update or add your new ideas as soon as possible to our project's website at https://projects.freifunk.net You can do that via github, just add or update your files at https://github.com/freifunk/projects.freifunk.net-contents/tree/master/coll… Thank you!

[lime-users] What are the settings of the precompiled images?

by Pedro Peña Sánchez

Hello everybody and excuse my poor english. I'm new here and have a lot of questions. In the section "get it" says.. "We offer precompiled firmware images of the LibreMesh stable release (Dayboot Rely 17.06) with generic settings" What are that generic settings? I see three variants in the downloads, default, mini and zero. What are their differences? Where can i look for that? I'm looking in https://github.com/libremesh/lime-sdk. I want to compile from source as a starting point and once i know how it works, and what does each package or protocol, be able to modify it to fit to my needs. I think i could contribute documenting all my questions. I will send more questions. Thanks in advance.

[lime-users] Fwd: OpenWrt 19.07.0 first stable release

by Ilario Gelmetti

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2020 00:38:15 +0100 From: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke(a)hauke-m.de> To: OpenWrt Development List <openwrt-devel(a)lists.openwrt.org> Subject: [OpenWrt-Devel] OpenWrt 19.07.0 first stable release Hi, The OpenWrt community is proud to announce the first stable release of the OpenWrt 19.07 stable version series. It incorporates 3954 commits since the previous release 18.06.0 and 85 commits since the previous release candidate 19.07.0-rc2. An upgrade from OpenWrt 18.06 to OpenWrt 19.07 is supported in many cases with the help of the sysupgrade utility which will also attempt to preserve the configuration. A configuration backup is advised nonetheless when upgrading to OpenWrt 19.07. With this release, the OpenWrt project brings all supported targets back to a single common kernel version and further refines and broadens existing device support. It also introduces a new ath79 target and brings support for WPA3. ----- Target transition from ar71xx to ath79 This release provides initial support for the new ath79 target, the future device tree based successor of the popular ar71xx target. For 19.07, both targets are still built, but it is recommended to switch to the ath79 target whenever possible: future releases of OpenWrt will drop support for the ar71xx target. Please read the known issues below before upgrading. ----- WPA3 support The 19.07 release brings initial support for WPA3. However, WPA3 is not enabled by default and *requires* installing specific packages: to run WPA3 as an access point, hostapd-openssl is needed. For use as a Wi-Fi station, you need either wpa-supplicant-openssl (station support only) or wpad-openssl (AP + station). Due to their large size, these packages are not installed by default, and it is impossible to install them on devices with less than 8MB flash. It should also be noted that many existing client devices will never support WPA3, and that there are client devices that support WPA2 but cannot connect to an AP configured with WPA2+WPA3 mixed mode. Please only file bugs if you are sure the problem is not client related. To configure your device as a WPA3 access point, see: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wifi/basic#wpa_modes ----- Client-side rendering of the LuCI web interface The new version of LuCI, the integrated web interface for OpenWrt, implements client-side rendering of views. This improves performance by offloading some work that was done on the device (Lua code) to the client browser (Javascript code) The LuCI ecosystem is large, and not all LuCI apps have been adapted to this change, which may result in crashes involving cbi.lua. In that case, install the luci-compat package. With this step, Lua usage in LuCI is reduced and LuCI effectively comes closer to the goals of the experimental LuCI2 without having to rewrite everything from scratch. ----- Main changes in OpenWrt 19.07.0 The main changes in this release since the previous OpenWrt 18.06 version are: * Updated toolchain: * musl libc 1.1.24 * uClibc-ng 1.0.31 * glibc 2.27 * gcc 7.5.0 * binutils 2.31.1 * Updated Linux kernel * 4.14.162 for all targets * Flow offloading bugfixes * Network userland: * hostapd 2.9, dnsmasq 2.80, dropbear 2019.78 * Fixes in network and wireless configuration handling * Bugfixes in DHCPv6 client and server * WPA3 configuration support * Install wpad-openssl for WPA3 support * System userland: * busybox 1.30.1 * Sysupgrade support for backup and upgrade capability checks * Contains urngd, non-physical true random number generator daemon based on timing jitter * Bugfixes in the process manager, system message bus, embedded web server and the configuration management library * Platform and Driver Support * Dropped adm5120, adm8668, ar7, au1000, ixp4xx, mcs814x, omap24xx, ppc40x, ppc44x and xburst target * New ath79 target that will replace the popular ar71xx target * Updates and new device support across all targets * LuCI web interface: * Client side rendering of views for improved performance * Security fixes A full list of all changes and security fixes is available in the detailed changelog, see https://openwrt.org/releases/19.07/changelog-19.07.0 ----- Known issues * Sysupgrade from ar71xx to ath79 and vice versa is not officially supported, a full manual reinstall is recommended to switch targets for devices supported by both ar71xx and ath79 * Images for some device became too big to support a persistent overlay, causing such models to lose configuration after a reboot. If you experience this problem, please report the affected device in the forum and consider downgrading to OpenWrt 18.06 or using the Image Builder to pack a smaller custom image * Some optional GUI packages crash with an error about missing "cbi.lua", install the luci-compat package to fix these * Possible Wi-Fi issues with ath10k-based boards. If you encounter such an issue, please file a bug report against openwrt-19.07. Please make sure the issue is not caused by WPA3. If you are using WPA3 and run into problems, revert to the encryption settings you used before upgrading to 19.07. ----- For latest information about the 19.07 series, refer to the wiki at: https://openwrt.org/releases/19.07/ To download the v19.07.0 images, navigate to: https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/19.07.0/ ----- As always, a big thank you goes to all our active package maintainers, testers, documenters, and supporters. Have fun! The OpenWrt Community

[lime-users] QoS, balanceo de ancho de banda

by Santi Vallazza

Buen día! Les consulto si se les ocurre cómo podría implementar un balanceo de carga para garantizar un mínimo de ancho de banda para que todos los dispositivos puedan acceder a internet. Sería bueno poder hacer grupos y dar distintas velocidades. En principio me gustaría que el usuario que pone la única salida a internet que tenemos, tenga un buen piso garantizado, para que no vea tan afectada su conección, y que el resto pueda acceder a algo básico. Me recomendaron usar un software de libre descarga de Microtik, e instalarlo en una computadora con 2 placas de red. Una placa conectada al equipo que accede a internet y la otra conectada a la red. ¿Ideas?

[lime-users] Fwd: Google Summer of Code - ideas wanted

by Ilario Gelmetti

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [gsoc-students-2019] Google Summer of Code - ideas wanted Date: Sun, 5 Jan 2020 23:05:52 +0100 From: Andreas Bräu via gsoc-students-2019 <gsoc-students-2019(a)freifunk.net> Reply-To: gsoc-org-admins(a)freifunk.net <gsoc-org-admins(a)freifunk.net> To: gsoc-students-2019(a)freifunk.net CC: Andreas Bräu <ab(a)andi95.de> Hi there, I wish you all the best for 2020! We're planning to apply for Google Summer of Code (GSoC) again. GSoC is a program by Google to bring student developers into Open Source projects. tl;dr: Google pays students for 3 months in summer developing software for an open source project. Therefore we need to collect ideas for possible projects. People from the projects will act as mentors for students. If you want to know more about that, please visit https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ Freifunk acts as umbrella organization since 2008 for several projects like OpenWRT, ninux, qaul.net, guifi.net, retroshare, wlan slowenija, altermundi.net, ... To apply as organization we need a list of project ideas, we collect at https://projects.freifunk.net. Now it's the best time to update or add ideas. This can be done via github: https://github.com/freifunk/projects.freifunk.net-contents The application period will start on January 14. The best case would be if you add your ideas until this deadline :) You can find the complete timeline at https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/how-it-works/#timeline If you know people within your community that would be interested in mentoring projects, feel free to distribute this email. Also, if you know students that would be interested in doing projects for one of our organizations, please tell them! If you have any questions, just send me an email! Best regards, Andi
