Tom; Snipped for brevity. I wouldn't say that ssh as a remote mobility initiative is anywhere close to 21st century... but to each their own. On the other hand, mobility and ubiquitous computing initiatives are of course more modern. Interestingly enough, the mesh here is actually 802.11s based (although I am not sure how compliant go networks is with their implementation). I should take an OLPC out there and see if I can get it to sync up. Extending the Champaign free wireless initiative one green machine at a time. ;) /tmy -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tom Poe Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2008 9:43 PM To: Tim Yardley Cc: [email protected]; 'Barry Isralewitz' Subject: Re: [CUWiN] Re: CU-Wireless Digest, Vol 40, Issue 1 Seems like wireless infrastructure mostly about kids being able to access their school networks for a truly 21st century education. Ssh connection to school network from downtown field trips, follow-up assignments for school, etc., is an everyday occurrance. I'd check with the schools, and see if they're employing ssh for their kids. If not, is it something they'd do if it was a benefit for expanding school curriculum using technology available through the wireless infrastructure. Just a thought. Tom Poe, Charles City, Iowa P.S. So far, our local city leaders and school IT folks reject such ideas out-of-hand. They like not providing our kids with a 21st century education. _______________________________________________ CU-Wireless mailing list [email protected] http://lists.chambana.net/cgi-bin/listinfo/cu-wireless Project Page: http://cuwireless.ucimc.org No virus found in this incoming message.
