I really don't mean any offense, but this sounds quite naive.  A non-profit
business is still a business!  If money or services change hands, then it
has to be well-run for me to trust it.  On the other hand, if we're talking
about essentially pooling our excess capacity, that's a different story,
since any one participant theoretically could screw up without causing
others any problems.

It is definitely worth exploring, especially considering how many wireless
users there apparently are around here.
