[WISPA] Network World Interview
Yesterday, Michael Anderson had John Cox of Network World call me to interview WISPA on what we have been able to accomplish in the Hurricane Katrina Crisis Relief Effort. He is writing a story that will come out in Mondays Issue. He was very detail oriented and I forwarded contact information for Matt Larsen and Mac Dearman to him. He also interviewed Michael. He asked me to provide the mailing list with his contact details. John Cox Senior Editor Network World www.networkworld.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] Direct Dial (508)-490-6466 He is looking for more material with how our teams have been satisfied with their work effort, the flow of equipment, volunteers and so forth, the frustrations that you have faced and he is definitely interested in some human interest stories, such as the one Jim Patient sent out last week. I cant seem to find that one now. If someone has it, please forward it to John. If you have even 5 minutes today and you have participated in this effort in any way, please send John an email. Im sure he has deadlines to meet so git r dun today. Also, a brief description of any help from other groups in our effort such as CUWIN, MediaAccess Project, Churchofthe.Net,,,others? We should recognize their efforts as well.

RE: [WISPA] Need Inputs From Hurricane Relief WISPTeamsForFCCPresentation on Thursday
Tom, What you have said here parallels some of the work I have been trying to accomplish. We Have to look at the bigger picture, not just the petty day to day stuff that happens, usually as a result of list traffic. We need to recognize our strengths and weaknesses (we definitely have both of them) and take a look at other groups which have similar interests yet a different menu of strengths and weaknesses. While it would be nice to have a WISPA presentator at the FCC open commission meeting, I see it more as a wedge driven between efforts to unite the industry. In the eyes of the FCC, further fragmentation of the WISP industry will not be looked kindly upon. They want one interface to deal with. That seems to be one of the advantages that Part-15 has over WISPA right now. Part-15 is the interface of choice in the current administration. My opinion is that we accept that fact and begin interacting with Michael, removing personal issues we may have and doing what is right for our industry. This crisis will come and go, there will be another, but if we allow the building blocks of this partnership to be set in the foundation, we can continue to build the wall strongly in a more calm period. This is obviously not the time to force these talks right now, but it is time to strengthen our relationship with Part-15 by showing our willingness to trust him when he says he will represent the WISP industry in Washington and not just Part-15. Look at it this way, If Michael takes credit for all that has happened and does NOT give WISPA, Mac and JohnnyO's teams any credit, I can envision a mass exodus of Part-15 subscribers from his ranks. Who in their right mind would want to support such a selfish display of grandstanding! I say, let's give the man a chance to do right. Will he say everything correctly? I doubt it, but would any of us in that situation. Michael has provided us a seat at the table, let's support him on this one.

The benefit is there is strength in numbers and strength in unity. The world doesn't know the difference between a WISP, a WISPA member, a Part-15 member, a training organization, or a non-profit association. Customer awareness is weak just for wireless alone. By partnering with any organization that represents WISPs, for any reason, it strengthens WISPs in the public eye. Regardless of wether Part-15's first effort worked out, they openly took WISPA on as partners before hand, and I see no reason to change that after the fact, just because one party ran into an unfortuneate situation. That would be like using them. Everyone has their contribution. Part-15 has gotten the ear of the FCC and DC officials, and WISPA has success stories like Mac Dearmans. Its a match to work togeather. We all have a common goal, to help solve a crisis. If the intent is real, it only makes sense to work togeather where ever we can. By coordinating, we also minimize duplication in efforts between the groups, which in turn allows us to move faster. I don't know how you can't see that.

From what I recall, Part-15 is a for profit organization focused on training and education. The only benefit I see is that the Part-15 membership rolls are good targets (forgive the not exactly accurate term) for WISPA membership. I don't see the two organizations as being an either/or type deal. What Part-15 attempted to do in the aftermath of the Katrina event was honorable and would have been beneficial had it worked out. There were a combination of things that happened to make their efforts futile. Even so, they DID send some things down to Mac Dearman, and perhaps JohnnyO, too. I am not sure about the Johnny shipments, but it seems that I heard that they did. Either way, their effort was good, their

I must have been all wrong about Part-15. (sigh) You know, it's kinda strange... Back on 9-1 and 9-2, we were all asking how we could help. Mac Dearman asked for some help in his efforts. Bullit was asking people to join in emergency relief in an active organization. A couple people were suggesting that an organized group of WISP's should be actively out there attempting to get stuff done on this list. In the timeline of events, Bullit was the first to try to put together a structured organization. He tried to get WISP's a role in the official efforts of FEMA and ARC, and in return the ARC mislead us and FEMA never offered any role at all. Now, in the timeline of things as they occurred, Part-15's efforts are pretty much the only structured means of WISP's deploying. The ad hoc support and efforts of others, like Mac Dearman have been, as could be expected, relatively small in terms of numbers of people, but highly effective. WISPA did not form an organization, but a couple of our influential members have played some personal roles in supporting those who were already there and on the ground. None of this says anything negative about the character, intentions, motivations, or anything else, of the people who joined in each effort. Rather, it offered some of us, who didn't have money or hardware to send, the ability to use our time and skills the means of least trying to help, and it offered those who did have those or could move immediately, a means of doing the same. Now, becuase I had and have no means of supporting Mac (I have neither money nor stuff to donate), I offered to support the other organization if they had some role for me. And they offered me a small one. Should I, then, have to observe hostility toward the organization I was offered a small role in by people who I trust to have no other desire than to be useful or do something good? I'm sure none of you have any desire to obstruct - I'd bet my last buck and my business on it. Whatever the personal motivations that an individual, even if that individual were the one who started t he organization, may or may not be, it doesn't really matter anymore. There's a whole chartful of people who, as best I can tell, REALLY want to do something. I know, becuase they've spent a lot of thier own money to come and play a role, some as far as from IRAQ to get here. No matter what I think of Michael Anderson personally, be it good or bad (and Im not willing to open my mouth and say ANYTHING on that topic right now), those people who are under him are dedicated to doing something good and have made great investments, some of time and money and equipment, others of just time, none of which are in ANY way antagonistic to WISPA, the WISPA members efforts and it would be totally wrong if they met obstruction or hostility, or a lack of cooperation or support from us. The very best outcome is that both means of support work out well. The worst possible outcome at this point, since there's folks on the ground doing what needs to be done... Is that Part-15 hogs all the credit to the press. Does that really hurt me, as a WISPA member? No, but it does mean lost opportunity to advance WISPA in the public eye. And right now, I don't see that happening. Let's not make there be any reason for it happen, and if it does, it's a relatively small setback on the road to carrying out our WISPA mission, that I believe is more than offset by our concerted efforts. In other words, the outcome - people helped - is to me, worth any possible future negatives. These two diverse approaches will be a good study in the future... something we can all learn from, so we can be more effective in the future, next time tragedy strikes... and there will be a next time. There always is.

We can take the $500 from Charles as part of the expense and have WISPA cover the rest. I think we need a front line guy to speak at this event. I think we should ask Michael to introduce Matt and yield a bit of his time if the FCC will not grant Matt his own time. This shows unity between industry groups and gives Part-15 and WISPA both an opportunity to show our efforts in helping those in need. Thoughts? Scriv Rick Harnish wrote: Congratulations Charles, so now we have a little Wu I'm sure you're a proud father. That's great. I'm not trying to start an argument here but WISPA was not invited to attend this function. We received very late notice about the conference call two weeks ago and none of us caught it in time. Because of that missed conference call, Part-15 submitted a plan to the FCC and became one of the approved vendors. It is my understanding that this open commission meeting is to allow those vendors to tell their story. Each vendor has five minutes to give a short presentation. Would the FCC allow another slot for WISPA? I'm not sure, maybe Marlon would have insight into this. The next question is: Do we want to portray a divided industry with Part-15 and WISPA taking credit for the same work? Michael has asked the WISPA board to provide him with bullet points of what we have accomplished this week. He given his word to portray WISPA as an important contributor in the efforts of this week and last week. He is very aware that the Mac Dearman team has been aligned much closer to WISPA than Part-15 and he realizes the damage he will do to his own reputation if he labels this effort as a Part-15 project. I am unable to make this trip myself even with Charles great contribution. I have been burning the candle at both ends the last two weeks and have plans to go help Mac's Team this weekend. I have been accumulating a truckload of supplies, computers, monitors, etc. from my local community this week. If WISPA needs to have a representative in Washington on Thursday, I suggest someone step up. I don't believe it necessarily needs to be a board member. Mac would be great, but do we really want to ask him to do more than he already is? Matt Larsen would be great as well, so would Marlon. We will need to get on the agenda right away if someone is committed to do this. I have been communicating with Michael a lot lately and I believe I have convinced him that part of his frustration in getting assistance has been because his first several press releases focused most of the attention on Part-15. He IS GETTING BETTER now. He took on a huge project, one that is bigger than any one man can handle himself. He has assigned

Rick, I will shoot you the info to get you base camp, but our sleeping arrangements are less than desireable and we have men sleeping everywhere so come prepared for whatever. I also am going to have another changing out of crew and may be in need of some more volunteers by the weekend. If any of you are interested in DONATING YOUR TIME GAS please shoot me an email off list stating your abilities using the KISS method ( keep it simple stupid) I can not have anyone and everyone just roll into camp. If you do not have authorization from me - - do not come. I have experienced this and allowed a couple guys into camp because they came from so far.I am trying to keep us at a maneagble and efficeient level and not overwhelm the Camel we are riding. We are now EOC certified and have badges to wear around our necks for identification. We have a FULL PASS permit given to us by EOC Mississippi.

That's enough. All of you. I've tried before to shut down these types of threads. No knock it off. We're (officially) working with p15. If you don't like it, take it up with the board. Arguments about who's daddy is bigger have no place on a public list at this time. IF the time comes to look back on things and point fingers I'll be first in line. For now though, I don't give a rats ass who gets credit. I want to see those who've got NOTHING left. Now home, no job, no food, no family etc. taken care of. No more talk about who's taking the lime light. No more talk about how the entities are structured. No more back biting. You guys talk about what can be done to make things better, make people's networks run better, argue about who's got the best gear out there or whatever, but this push and pull between p15 and wispa stops now. I don't have the power to get people booted from this list, but if folks don't start contributing instead of putting others down I'll make a motion at the board level to have a few people (even though some of you are my friends) banned for a cooling off time. have a great day, Marlon (509) 982-2181 Equipment sales (408) 907-6910 (Vonage)Consulting services 42846865 (icq)And I run my own wisp! 64.146.146.12 (net meeting) www.odessaoffice.com/wireless www.odessaoffice.com/marlon/cam -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/

[WISPA] Funding help - The Challenge
I am coming down your way Mac. Expect me Thursday late or more likely Friday. I will either come with Rick Harnish or load a trailer of my own and bring it your way. Either way I am coming to help any way I can for a few days. For those of you who want to help, cash is the word of the day. Get Mac some money. He won't tell you this but I know he has spent several thousand of his own money running this deal. It is time for all of you to help. Go to http://crisis.wispa.org/ and you can send through the Churchofthe.Net 501c3 there if you need the tax write-off or is only way your company can help. Send it directly to Mac's Paypal if the tax credit is not required. His email for paypal is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jon Price of ISPCON has sent us $2000 to help. That is a challenge I think. If any of the rest of you have done well in this business and have it to spare then please send Mac's group some cash. Last I heard he needs lots of Cat 5 also. So let's get it together guys. Mac and many others down south are working to help these folks. Let's help them. They need food and water too. We need to get them money to operate and to live. Until Uncle Sam steps in (maybe never) then we will have to do whatever we can to help with what we can put together ourselves. Here is the challenge to all. I want Mac to have $10K to work with before Monday morning. Get to work! Get him some cash!

When only 40 people had died from Katrina, they were on the ground and knew the tally would be in the thousands, they knew New Orleans would not be spared. These are the men and women who were on the ground running before FEMA and the President was properly briefed. They were the ones, with donations from other WISP's and related services who started the first communications. Don't be fooled by the BIG GUYS PR Dept. because they were a full week or more behind these WISPS, but we don't have a PR dept. who only sees this as a marketing opportunity.

Why don't you contact him and see if you can get clearance to attend. Hi all Today at noon, I was required to submit my formal Commission briefing that was to be held tomorrow morning in Washington. The Commission had originally, back on Sep 12th asked me to provide an industry wide status report. That report was to be forwarded to the commission no later than noon, Washington time today. I was able to produce a document that I believe was a humble attempt to bring the FCC up to date. I also believe that the report has it's shortcomings. However, those shortings can and will be addressed during future updates. In essence, I was pressed for time on this one and did not nor could not include everything the industry is doing. I will continue to strive for more in-depth reporting. I found out late last night that the actual Commission meeting is being postponed and relocated to Atlanta, GA and although my report will be included in the overall Commission meeting, I will not be providing a presentation in person. Now onto future reporting - I still am in need of your continued status reporting from the field.

We are going down to bring Internet connectivity, PCs and VOIP to three places initially. One is a shelter that has 300+ evacuees that are local to Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi. One of them is the camp site of City Team and one other camp other than our own. We are also splitting up and making a second team with a relay yard in Alexandria, Louisiana where there are so many shelters without any of the resources that we are providing. The big trailer will initially be deployed in Alexandria. Our intentions are to provide as long and as fast as we can. We will be pulling out of here after while headed South. -- Mac Dearman Maximum Access, LLC. www.inetsouth.com 318-728-8600 - Rayville 318-303-4229 318-303-4231 318-450-4349 - Monroe, La 318-303-4227 - NOC -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/
RE: [WISPA] Funding help - The Challenge
In addition to what's below, fwiw: 1) I'd like to challenge and/or incent any supplier to send gear to Mac in return for anything I can provide in equal value of exposure or additional support during the show... space, ads, whatever makes sense to get that pallet of equipment off the dock on the road to NOLA. I've been talking to a few of the more conspicuously absent names for that donation list about this already, but haven't had any firm takers so far. If you are on the fence about doing something, lmk and we'll find a way to make it worthwhile to ship out whatever you have that Mac needs and can get into the field ASAP. 2) If anyone sends Mac / Churchofthe.Net / WISPA a donation of $350 or more, I'll comp you a pass for our full conference if you haven't signed up yet. After you get your receipt from Mac, just send me an email and we'll sort it out. 3) If you don't have the $350 to kick in, but are on the fence about pitching in from afar or just going there to help for even a few solid hours, same difference. Send me an email afterwards and we'll work it out, but either way just do something NOW. btw, a few weeks back someone here was talking about having a WISPA meeting in a field with tents and jetskis.

Re: [WISPA] FCC Open Commission Meeting Moved
will hold its meeting in Atlanta, Georgia at BellSouth Telecommunications Inc.’s Emergency Control Center located at the following address: Did you guys catch the location of the meeting :-( Forgive me for any negativism, but I wouldn't be surprised if the WISP report actually just ends up telling Bell South where they need to focus their efforts. What would really be interesting would be if Bell South offered to hire WISPs to help restore their systems. Or Bell south disclosed info where WISPs could be the most helpful based on where the most damage is to their network. So the ILEC and WISP united as one in response to tragedy. Although, I don't see that happening :-( I'm interested in where the $667 million is going. Does some of it go to help re-build telco networks? Or is the Bell going to have to foot their own repair bill?

Re: [WISPA] FCC Open Commission Meeting Moved - speaking of government presentations

I've been talking to a few of the more conspicuously absent names for that donation list about this already, but haven't had any firm takers so far. If you are on the fence about doing something, lmk and we'll find a way to make it worthwhile to ship out whatever you have that Mac needs and can get into the field ASAP. 2) If anyone sends Mac / Churchofthe.Net / WISPA a donation of $350 or more, I'll comp you a pass for our full conference if you haven't signed up yet. After you get your receipt from Mac, just send me an email and we'll sort it out. 3) If you don't have the $350 to kick in, but are on the fence about pitching in from afar or just going there to help for even a few solid hours, same difference. Send me an email afterwards and we'll work it out, but either way just do something NOW. btw, a few weeks back someone here was talking about having a WISPA meeting in a field with tents and jetskis.

For those of you who want to help, cash is the word of the day. Get Mac some money. He won't tell you this but I know he has spent several thousand of his own money running this deal. It is time for all of you to help. Go to http://crisis.wispa.org/ and you can send through the Churchofthe.Net 501c3 there if you need the tax write-off or is only way your company can help. Send it directly to Mac's Paypal if the tax credit is not required. His email for paypal is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jon Price of ISPCON has sent us $2000 to help. That is a challenge I think. If any of the rest of you have done well in this business and have it to spare then please send Mac's group some cash. Last I heard he needs lots of Cat 5 also. So let's get it together guys. Mac and many others down south are working to help these folks. Let's help them. They need food and water too. We need to get them money to operate and to live. Until Uncle Sam steps in (maybe never) then we will have to do whatever we can to help with what we can put together ourselves. Here is the challenge to all.

Maybe we can make an announcement and meet some like minded souls at Bell South and other companies or on the staffs of the State Public Utiltiy Commissions. I am ready to convey ideas and issues, but please dont count on me to present your ideas officially. Copy my travel e-mail if you send it after midnight tonight. [EMAIL PROTECTED] . You can always text me via www.vtext.com and get confirmed delivery to my phone, even during the meeting. BTW, I have heard that 3.5 GHz equipment Broadband Wireless Equipment pre-WiMax and 802.11d (2004) certified may be allowed temporarily by the FCC. There is a lot of good long range equipment avaialble with QoS built in for quality voice, especially if mounted for line of sight transmission. Also there is enough spectrum at 3.5 GHz for both Bell South and independents to compete on price and service. Lets take the high road and push for an open and level playing field.
