Congradulations Matt.
What you demonstrated is exactly the message that WISPs need to send to
their community and Munis. That there is benefit to partner with your local
WISP that already has coverage and backbones, instead of duplicating,
competing and interfering with them. No Provider will want to interfere
with their own backbone provider, which incourages a long term cooperative
relationship with the existing WISP partner for mutual benefit.

Subject: [WISPA] Muni wireless
I personally don't much care for Muni wireless as I would rather the
government stay out of the ISP business. With that being said, Rome, GA
announced that GTS had won the the contract to install a wireless system
for the city. See http://muniwireless.com/municipal/bids/1102/ for details
on the announcement.
What I thought the list might find interesting is that we (AirInfinite,
now One Ring Networks) were included in GTS's bid and will now be
providing backhaul for the wireless network. I believe this is an
interesting approach for WISPs to take when dealing with munis that have
an interest in wireless.
