I somehow missed all the discussion of Egypt here, so I apologize for coming late to the game. There's *a lot* of work on the mesh and mobile side that's been happening largely separately but in parallel to p2p development over the last 10 years or so. The best I know of is from Sascha Meinrath and the people over at OTI. Have a look here, for example: http://www.saschameinrath.com/2011/feb/18/gigaom_covers_otis_mesh_work_build... There's also a great deal of activity in the censorship circumvention world surrounding all these issues, with most of the funding coming directly from State. As an aside, there are rumors that the Egyptian communications minister pulled the plug at the IXP in Egypt as the lessor of two evils with the other option being monitoring, geolocating, and arresting all dissidents at the behest of Egyptian intelligence. -Adam -- Adam Fisk http://www.littleshoot.org | http://adamfisk.wordpress.com | http://twitter.com/adamfisk _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list p2p-hackers@lists.zooko.com http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE
