from New Orleans but here is a link to someone who may be able to help with

I'm wondering if WISPA has missed the boat for the relief effort.
Shouldn't wispa stand behind and work with Part-15 on this one? This isn't a
race to look best, but an effort to put WISPs on the map as reliable and
trustworthy!

Guess I'll stick my neck out here and say that I have to agree.
Duplication of efforts is NOT what is needed at this point in time...

One of our WISPA members, Mac Dearman, has already setup VOIP, Internet,

I do not care who gets the glory on this. I sent Mac $250. He has put
out a call for money, food, equipment and people to help him there
today. I am

Mac - it is a very short process to get FEMA and the REDCROSS or
Salvation Army involved. Contact me offlist for details - You do not
need to be footing this bill, not necessary at all. FYI - All of these
refugees must register with FEMA immediately via the internet.

I definitely applaud Mac for providing the Internet and VOIP to the
shelters his church has setup for the Refugees. We have 4 or 5 shelters
in the area that we are providing "internet" to - no go on
Johnny,
You are mistaken - - it is not 1 man and its not one shelter. It is 3
Parishes full of evacuees and 11 shelters. (estimated 1100 evacuees)

That was not my point - The point is - WISPA is supposed to be a
powerful organization in the making, and it seems that the help to
support the food / shelter requirements is one thing - but they can also
stepup and help out with the resources / logistics needed to make the
Part-15 project a succes

However I don't think we should "get behind" P-15 effort. I would like
it to be a joint effort by WISPs, not WISPA, P-15, Cisco, or whoever.
Lets do this for the homeless down there with the side benefit of a
