Hi Abe,

In the organisation of a Melbourne community network I believe higpoints are
beneficial as backbone links but probably aren't well suited as general
access APs.  I don't know how many clients an AP can support at any one time
but it can't be that many. (Anyone?) I suppose you'd need to set up an
organised distribution system whereby certain people out in the burbs link
to the distant highpoints, and then distribute the network in their local
area.  Not that such a system precludes the suburbs linking to each other,
rooftop to rooftop.
