I love the idea of mesh networking to decentralize the net and using OTS solutions to do so. In fact, I've pushed for it on HN. But, here are a few problems:

* Before a "theory" website with cheesy blog/helloworld/contact images http://openlibernet.org/index.html#contribute, come up with a solution. The U.S. has been through several years of executive and legislative branches led on both sides by activists with good intentions and no real, thought-out workable solutions. Beyond bumper stickers of hope, you must have solutions, truly sell them, compromise on some keys points so you have enough people on board, and implement. We don't need a page telling us about a net we can't use yet.

* Bitcoin. Don't tie something completely unrelated to a networking solution.

* To make it work (really), you need points on the network that can do short and long-range. Wifi only is not enough.
