==========================================================

The next 'Wireless Battle of the Mesh' (Battlemesh) will take place from
Mon 8th - Sun 14th of May 2023 in Calafou (https://calafou.org/) near

The Wireless Battle Mesh is a non-commercial, volunteer-organized annual
convention.
The convention features a variety of talks and workshops on technical

There will be 6 days full of expert presentations, late night hacking
sessions, measurement campaigns, protocol discussions, and a lot of
other meshy things.

activist, or have an interest in mesh networks in general, you have to

Schedule and Call for participation
===================================

The event will feature organized talks, workshops and discussion panels
on community networks and wireless mesh networks. There will also be
more informal activities: cooperative hacking, self-organized projects,
and (we hope) delightful conversations! In addition, there may be a
self-organized wireless mesh network, running different routing
protocols to compare them. Please coordinate directly on the Battlemesh
mailing list (see link below) to make that happen.

The schedule is being updated at:
https://battlemesh.org/BattleMeshV15#Talk_Schedule_and_Workshops

We invite participants to propose workshops, talks or panel discussions
relating to network infrastructure in general, how it can be built and
operated as a common, and how to sustain a community around networking.
We welcome contributions that broadly address these questions from any
of several perspectives: technical, organisational, economical,
regulatory, juridical, political. Example topics:

* Wireless Community Networks
* Community Networks that deploy Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) networks
* TV white space as a precious network resource (radio spectrum)
* Free hardware and free software for Community Networks
* How to organize a durable community structure?
* How to involve non-technical people? To "digital stewardship" and beyond?
* How to disseminate the spirit of community networks, knowledge etc?
* Connecting rural areas: challenges and solutions
* Public fiber networks: architecture, funding, private actors involved,
oversight
* Internet of Things (IoT) networks and their impact on society
* How to take advantage of a community network in ways otherwise not
possible? What are the applications?
* Local Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) as a common infrastructure
* DNS as a common infrastructure
