This list comes out of a session at the International Summit for Community Wireless Networks (www.wirelesssummit.org). The group that will use this list will use it for the initial stages of the creation of a portal to connect open source community networking developers to each other (sourcetreecommons.org). We will use the list to organize the fundraising to build the portal and establish the needs of the developers who will be using the portal. In all likelihood, the mailing list will be moved to our own server once the initial levels of funding have been secured. In many ways, this mailing list will serve various software groups in their efforts to avoid unnecessary replication.
