Jim, did you (or do you plan to) add any additional language to your AUP? One of the very first things I did here at A-C was to update the AUP, but that was going on three years ago and a lot has change (while a lot of of core ideas in an AUP has stayed the same) including the idea of ubiquitous wireless access.
One idea we have is putting a ruggedized outdoor AP in the parking lot for students to access after school hours and during weekends/holidays: does that need to be formalized in a document? As I said before, I am not as worried about the technicals of how to broadcast two SSIDs and have one open to just the Internet, but rather how to craft a useful policy to cover ourselves when I light that up. --Michael T.
