I'm curious to see exactly what a re-cased WAP-11 would look like and what it does. How's a Saturday afternoon, sometime in May sound for people? Maybe Dunn Bros. in St. Paul, as a good access point (so to speak), to get people together? I think we're approaching some sort of a critical mass in terms of people who are interested... Andy, and a number of other notables, have provided numerous, technically specific replies to my mega-newbie questions. If we could have everyone more or less in the same room, especially with good coffee, that'd be really nice. If we can get a date going, how about intentionally cross-posting to the TC-LUG list? Since I'm a idea machine right now, who can I talk to about getting more content up on the www.TCWUG.org website? This would be a good starting point for people who would like to know what it takes to get started, compatibility issues with *nix, and maybe some sample AP site maps of the Twin Cities... - Nick Ryberg -----Original Message----- From: Andy Warner [mailto:andyw at pobox.com] Sent: Sunday, April 28, 2002 9:20 PM To: tcwug-list at tcwug.org Subject: Re: [TCWUG] interest in an actual community wireless network? I think a face-to-face meeting of TCWUG would be a great idea, long overdue. I'll offer to do some show and tell at a meeting, with a re-cased, tower mount WAP-11 with POE, as long as the meeting happens before I bolt it to my chimney :-) If anyone can supply a PCMCIA-capable Mac (or an Intermec AP), we could do an alchemy BOF too, where Lucent Silver cards were upgraded to Gold. -- andyw at pobox.com
