Sujet: Re: [Squatconf] Prosfygika Network -- first milestone reached
Hi,

very interesting email. I'm especially interested in technical (and
non-technical) projects and jobs you have to work on, I'm curious
to meet new people and groups. Though flights
to greece or anywhere at all are currently not affordable for me.

I've seen of your website that you use wordpress.
Have you looked at the wordpress with modifications A/I with noblogs.org
and blackblogs uses? The source of A/I can be found here: https://git.autistici.org/groups/ai/

How are mesh networks in Greece in general? Is there anything like Freifunk
which covers large parts of cities and villages?
