I am Juergen from freifunk.net/Germany. We have met on some of the wireless events in the past. I would love to come and meet with you in London, but I can not make it unfortunately. Please take the chance to meet with James Stevens. He is one of the very first people engaged in the idea of open wireless networks in Europe and has so much spread the vision over the continent. We very much share the community approach and the concepts of ownership, meshing, sharing and spreading knowledge, open space methodology, and many other things. As I think that you are another one of these living personalities that has done so much for the wireless movements - especialy the rural ones - there must be a very intersting synthesis! I very much wish you will be able to find out some of it ... 

Very kindly,

Juergen

PS: I would be very pleased if James and others in London could manage to record some of your talks, as I think it could be of interest to many others, too.

PPS: @James - what's the state and experience with the open-mesh.com routers? If positive, maybe you could introduce it to Mahabir ...
