Manchester Wireless aims to create a city-wide wireless network using freely available off-the-shelf hardware, and free, open-source software.
People interested in joining in the project should join the mailing list for general discussion and debate.
The website has only been up for a month, but already there has been quite a lot of interest. A few people from Manchester Wireless are working towards setting up links across Fallowfield and Withington, and there are a couple of active nodes in and around the city centre. More detailed information can be found at the website.
