Hi all. So for anyone who hasn't heard, "ChaosVPN" its a big network run by the CCC to connect hackerspaces across the world (though mostly in north American and Europe). It is a very redundant mesh network run over SSL encrypted tunnels, using the "tinc" software (which was partially developed by ChaosVPN members) and a wrapper, and it peers and it peers to other "darknets" such as Freifunk and dn42. The software is available for Linux and the BSDs. It addresses over the "private network" addressing in RFC1918. https://wiki.hamburg.ccc.de/ChaosVPN There are a number of hackerspaces connected, some of the bigger ones you might have heard of are Hanover and Hamburg Chaos Computer Club, Austin 2600, the Krakow and Warsaw hackerspaces, and nearly a hundred other spaces. mcfly from the CCC is organizing a "geekend" Dec 14th and 15th to work on some of the infrastructure-ish parts of the network. If anyone is interested in joining in and working on some infrastructure things, set up services, or just wants to learn more about the network in general let me know, I would be happy to discuss. I've been working with it for almost a year now, and ive taken on the job of making some software to take care of tracking services that are offered on the network. It's a neat thing! I'm super stoked about mesh networks and connecting with like-minded people, but the network is still relatively infant. Anyways. Lemme know! https://wiki.hamburg.ccc.de/index.php?title=ChaosVPN:geekend10&direction=next&oldid=9265 -Tim _______________________________________________ members-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lygo.slepp.ca/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/members-discuss
