Absolutely agree. I am not developer but could be a tester :-)

Pitbull is not useful yet according to Nico Pace.
We started to
collaborate
to develop to get it finished but it doesn't seem like it will happen
in
less than 6 months or so.
If we write a brief description of the skills and work needed to create Pitbull, maybe we
can
attract more developers. And even if we don't attract more people to participate, we
will have a
clearer understanding of the work. Who can improve this first draft?:
*The LibreMesh community will soon start working on a captive portal software to enable
community
functions such as local bulletin boards and network access control. We call on people
with Lua
programming experience to look at our GitHub repo at https://GitHub.com/libremesh/pitbull
and post
questions and comments there. For more read communication, visit our matrix chat room at
-insert
address here-. We also call on people interested in testing the captive portal software
as we
develop it.*
Improving this call to action and distributing it among our networks at least opens the
chance of
other people joining the effort... Nothing to lose.
(I'm willing to learn more programming, but I don't I can contribute much in
that task. Testing I
think I can do.)
I think these creations, such as the captive portal, add a lot of value to our networks
and make
them more attractive and more viable as real alternatives to non-community networks,
offering tools
and social dynamics that non-community networks cannot offer.
I'll work on an English documentation of the
hack this weekend and send
it
to the list, it would be great if you could test.
Great! Our community in Caimito has wanted a captive portal since we started over a year
ago. I
look forward to testing (and upgrading or nodes to libremesh 17).

of
this as a +1!

Hello,
Here we are considering again the captive portal thing. It would be
a
welcome page with some community news, not real authentication. I
guess
we would like a system where MAC addresses of users who just clicked
an
"Ok" button of the splash page would be validated for a month. So
they
would have to go through this News page once a month.
I've seen Nodogsplash seems to be maintained again, so I can try to
make
it work for LiMe. But first I wanted to ask about Pitbull, as I
think
that was something similar but specially made for LiMe.
What is the status of Pitbull?
Would it work for the described need?
Thank you!
