Update - Ponchatoula



We have begun a project we are calling NOMesh which is a community based wireless network which will provide internet access free of charge to users with a computer and a wireless card. This will be done by setting up dozens of access points around the target neighbourhoods and connecting each to some sort of bandwidth (ranging from home DSL and cable to greater bandwidth connections). The project is being built by Jeff Moe of Colorado (themoes.org), Aleks from Peru who works in Iraq and Jim Patient among others. Pictured is Geoffrey and Mike.





Zev, the warehouse emptying, truck filling cook from Montreal and Kevin, the "head" of the Ponchatoula household, are usually found working very....VERY...hard.
