Cool. If you have any more questions, fire away, as I am the liason for OCF. I'll also be unofficially promoting our efforts at Burning Man in the end of August/beginning of September... the same free ISP-like wifi LAN, WAN-connected by satellite, is set up down there (as it is on the OCF site) during the event. The group I camp with at burning man is known as the "Embassy", or sometime the "OCF Embassy" but we're not supposed to use the OCF name, according to lawyers. :) It is the largest community (ie, non-theme) camp at BM, AFAIK.
