Description. Jess Scully: "Taiwan’s civic hackers were organized around a leaderless collective called g0v (pronounced “gov zero.”) Many believed in radical transparency, in throwing opaque processes open to the light, and in the idea that everyone who is affected by a decision should have a say in it.

1. "Mesh networks - are highly distributed networks which use special routing technology. In standard routing technology as used to send and receive information via the internet the 'routes' which data packets take are fixed. In mesh networks the software decides 'dynamically' or 'ad-hoc' which route data packets take. Sometimes 'mesh networking' a...
From a summary in Technology Review: "Meshies believe that mesh networks will overthrow traditional networking and communications and create entirely new kinds of distributed software. For the purposes of this column, mesh networks (sometimes called mobile ad hoc networks, or MANETs) are local-area networks whose nodes communicate directly with eac...
Privacy
Primavera de Filippi: "For these concerned about the erosion of online privacy and anonymity, mesh networking represents a way to preserve the confidentiality of online communications. Given the lack of a central regulating authority, it’s extremely difficult for anyone to assess the real identity of users connected to these networks. And because mesh networks are generally invisible to the internet, the only way to monitor mesh traffic is to be locally and directly connected to them."(http:/...
Community Governance
Primavera de Filippi: "Yet beyond the benefits of costs and elasticity, little attention has been given to the real power of mesh networking: the social impact it could have on the way communities form and operate. What’s really revolutionary about mesh networking isn’t the novel use of technology. It’s the fact that it provides a means for people to self-organize into communities and share resources amongst themselves: Mesh networks are operated by the community, for the community. Especiall...
May 2009: "Mesh networking as a broad-based approach to networking is growing. A mesh network with 240 nodes covers Vienna. Similar projects are underway in Barcelona, Athens, the Czech Republic and, before long, in two areas of Boston not far from the cafe we’re sitting in. But the most dramatic examples are the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanista...
Mesh Networks or Ad Hoc Networks for the telecom sector, as described in The Economist: "The mesh-networking approach, which is being pursued by several firms, does this in a particularly clever way. First, the neighbourhood is “seeded" by the installation of a “neighbourhood access point" (NAP)—a radio base-station connected to the Internet via a ...
Why Open Mesh Networks are beneficial
1) Mark Cooper: "The technologies at the heart of the digital revolution are also at the heart of the deployment of open wireless networks in the spectrum commons. The potential spectrum carrying capacity has been the direct beneficiary of the convergence of progress in digital technology and the institutional development of networks. When users add radios that help by cooperating in receiving and forwarding signals, i.e. act as repeaters, carrying capacity of the network increases. Smart nod...
Meshworks are different from P2P Networks
As far as I understand the distinction, P2P works on the existing infrastructure, which may or not be P2P itself, while meshworks create a new infrastructure which is much more thoroughly distributed. From a discussion of a Technology Review article athttp://www.technologyreview.com/Infotech/18284/page1/ "In a P2P network, the physical infrastructure still looks like a tree, but the bandwidth is more efficiently employed because underutilized branches can become content distributors as well a...
Meshworks are different from Ad Hoc Networks
The French article below stresses that meshworks indicate that nodes are connected, usually with their neighbours, while ad hoc means that any node can connect with another temporarily. Citation: "On notera qu’une confusion fréquente consiste à assimiler les réseaux “Mesh” et les réseaux “ad hoc”, et les deux avec Wi-Fi. Le concept de réseau “ad hoc” correspond au fait que chaque élément rejoint le réseau de façon immédiate, au besoin (en général, l’élément est identifié par son adresse résea...
