Hello Bon, I believe the maps server was taken down due to the recent articles on slash dot etc... the traffic was killing ptp's box...
Bs> I had several brief conversations with the author of nodedb --- Bs> evilbunny. I understand from evilbunny that (s)he has reservation to use Bs> his/her real name for privacy reason, which I respect. But I myself am Bs> puzzling what anonymous identity may entail when one has to assume Bs> responsiblity and liability. You left off trying to keep wireless and business separate... My name isn't exactly a secret, just not well publicised... Bs> More inline comments .... Bs> I do not know what Terry meant by that. The information in nodedb is NOT Bs> entirely identical to that in maps.nycwireless. ESSID was not even Bs> listed. That may be fine if one's arm is to be twisted to use only one Bs> generic ESSID. Anyway, I personally have reservation about the Bs> truth of a complete mapping of information between nodedb and Bs> maps.nycwireless, especially by looking at the schema for NODEDB publicly Bs> available at: I'm sure in light of what some cable companies have done lately you guys would have opt'd for a little more privacy, essid is stored from ptp, just never displayed, although it wouldn't take much to add essid on a per interface basis... Bs> Terry, if you spend sometime to look at the Go-Wireless project, you will Bs> see our schema design incorporates such business logic, and extends MUCH Bs> MORE far beyond that. The Go-Wireless project URL has been posted a number Bs> of times to the NYCWireless as well as the APP SIG. Here again in case one Bs> is interested but misplaced the URL Or if you email a coder working on it with suggestions for improvement, it sometimes also appears :) Bs> If there is any negotiation going on between the screen, I will appreciate Bs> the involving parties brought forth of the negotiation to the front for Bs> all the members of NYCWireless. None that I'm aware of other then requesting schema etc... -- Best regards, evilbunny mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.SydneyWireless.com - Exercise your communications freedom to make it do what you never thought possible... -- NYCwireless - http://www.nycwireless.net/ Un/Subscribe: http://lists.nycwireless.net/mailman/listinfo/nycwireless/ Archives: http://lists.nycwireless.net/pipermail/nycwireless/
