Many different people and groups are trying to solve the problems in different ways. Approaches range from sharing out no-cost Internet access with stand-alone wireless hotspots to building city-wide wireless networks which are entirely separate from the Internet. Only time will tell what is the most effective approach to building a community wireless network. text/html 2007-08-17T06:41:41-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/en?rev=1187347301 text/html 2007-08-17T06:41:58-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/english?rev=1187347318 text/html 2007-08-17T06:41:07-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/fr?rev=1187347267 text/html 2008-06-25T08:43:02-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/gr?rev=1214397782 text/html 2007-08-17T06:47:57-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/hu?rev=1187347677 text/html 2007-07-14T18:45:38-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/it?rev=1184453138 text/html 2007-07-14T18:45:25-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/italian?rev=1184453125 text/html 2007-08-17T05:05:56-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/manifesto?rev=1187341556 The Wireless Commons Manifesto We have formed the Wireless Commons because a global wireless network is within our grasp. We will work to define and achieve a wireless commons built using open spectrum, and able to connect people everywhere. We believe there is value to an independent and global network which is open to the public. We will break down commercial, technical, social and political barriers to the commons. The wireless commons bridges one of the few remaining gaps in universal comm… text/html 2007-04-16T20:51:57-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/openspectrumfaq?rev=1176771117 [Array][Array][Array] Open Spectrum FAQ 1. “This sounds like a pretty geeky, technical topic. Why should I care?” Imagine that every American had the same access to the public airways as broadcasters do today. Imagine everyone living within reach of a radio signal had the ability to communicate with everyone else. Imagine rather than having to worry about how much “bandwidth” is enough, everyone had unlimited access to bits so that the size of what you communicate simply didn't… text/html 2007-09-05T20:07:21-04:00 http://www.wirelesscommons.org/resources?rev=1189037241 Other Resources Thank you for taking the time read our manifesto and definition.
