[MLB-WIRELESS] Query: Organising High-Visibility Sites in Geelong Region.

[Victor]

Greetings Everyone,

New to the Melbourne Wireless group but not new to the idea (I've been
semi-interested for a while, just never had much spare time (or my own
place) to really get it into gear).

Now that I have my own place (and spare time!!) I'm setting up shop.

I'll initially be connecting through Node KBN (freenet.net.au) which has a
link setup accross the bay from Highton to ... I forget where off the top of
my head.


But I'm also interested in configuring some more high-visibility sites
in/around geelong area and trying to build up the wifi side of things and
get more people on board and build up a big net.


The main thing I need is direction, what are some of things I'll need to
consider first about organising high-visibility spots? (Assuming I can get
in contact with the right people and get it happening) I have been talking
to Mike Everest (node KBN) and he's suggested I approach melbourne wireless
group for more information as one of things that is/will be needed is an
incorporated body, which I am under the belief melb wireless already has.

So from here so far, what is needed? What would I need to do / organise etc.
to try get some things rolling?
I'm looking at about 1-2 months at the most to trying to organise access to
have look to setting up some high-visibility locations, I have some in mind
but I'll approach that bridge when I past the first hurdle of getting all
the initial knowledge first.
Not so much how to / what to setup, but more so what to do/say/ask/etc. to
convince those in relevant positions to give permission to use their site.


Looking forward to learning more!
