Bonjour,

Nous sommes très heureux de pouvoir organiser le Battlemesh en France
cette année !  Nous allons essayer d'orienter l'événement sur les sujets
qui nous tiennent à coeur (réseaux radio, mais aussi comment organiser une
communauté, c'est quoi les enjeux politiques et financiers, la fiiiibre,
etc).

Nous attendons 50 à 100 personnes qui viennent de partout dans le monde
(freifunk, guifi.net, mais aussi Altermundi en Argentine, des communautés
aux US, et bien d'autres)

Nous comptons donc sur chacun et chacune d'entre vous pour venir
représenter votre asso et la fédé, et surtout rencontrer plein de gens
intéressants !  Venez nombreux et n'hésitez pas à proposer des
présentations ou des ateliers.

Aube, Daniele, Baptiste, Vi

The Wireless Battle Mesh v12
Building community networks for fun and non-profit
8th - 14th of July 2019, Paris, France
==========================================================

The upcoming 'Wireless Battle of the Mesh' event will take place from Mon 8th
- Sun 14th of July in "Le 6B" in Saint-Denis, near Paris.

The event aims to bring together people from across the globe who are
interested in community networks,including wireless mesh network technologies,
fiber infrastructure, Do-It-Yourself Internet Access Providers, and more
generally how to create and maintain a thriving community of people involved
in building their own networks.

This year, we would like to expand the topics beyond wireless, with a dual
focus on fiber and community.

We envision 7 days full of expert presentations, practical workshops,
late-night hacking sessions, and fruitful discussions:
whether you are a mesh networking enthusiast, community networking activist,
protocol developer, or have an interest in networking in general, come and
join us!
