Here’s the snip from the meeting notes:<BR>
<BR>
Andrew been working on literature that could be distributed to the public that talks about wireless, TCWUG, and generally encourages people to get involved and set up hotspots. A question at the meeting was: by using netstumbler, or just turning on your wi-fi card, you/we can see networks and tell if they’re open or not. Also, it’s not to hard to narrow the location down to a small area. Here’s the problem: how can we contact the person running the hotspot, and either get them to list themselves as a public hotspot or help them secure their network, without, for lack of a better phrase, creeping them out totally? I’m going to post this to the list as a separate piece, as I think outreach is pretty important, and I’d like to get some other views.<BR>

Ideas? Thoughts? <BR>

Andrew, can you post your brochure?<BR>
