Meanwhile ... Was: Re: Re: [MLB-WIRELESS] locfinder v2 beta

Now this is more like a post we should be seeing !!, as a note to all
parties who wish to start trouble between people, keep it off this list.  I
am on this list to get communications with like minded people who want to
build wireless networks (although I am severely hampered by inhospitable
terrain (read big hill, big tree's)) anything else is basically a
distraction and unwanted.  And while I am here, anyone along Forest Rd in
Boronia (or that can see down into my little valley just of Daffodil Rd) I
want to hear from you so we can get something going around here.

So lets go guys, more building less bickering.

Matt.
