Welcome
Greetings
This message is a welcome to new subscribers of:
[email protected]
This email list is dedicated to the exchange of information among its
subscribers on the topic of advocating, informing and deploying local
economy-building, true 'open' fiber (and wireless) broadband networks
for the communities and people of New Mexico; and to the support of
applications that may improve the quality of life and livelihoods in
this state.
As subscribers, you are requested to now participate in the shaping of
discussions and sharing of information on this list. I would
especially like your immediate feedback on the list organization and
content, as well as recommendations for additional
subscribers. This is an open discussion list, and should
easily be managed as such. To facilitate the technical side
of this effort, I have used the free resources (hosting, tools, etc.)
of the Davis Community Network, in California, my prior 'first mile'
site. As we proceed, if desired or needed, this project can be
moved to an appropriate NM hosting and online service site.
The 1st-mile web site complements the email list, allowing for
additional and more robust information resources and content
management. The site is created with Plone, an open source
CMS. If any of you want to help develop and maintain
the web site, please let me know.
There is lots more to communicate about this exciting
initiative. It awaits your involvement, replies and
postings, now. See you online in the 1st-mile.
