Real Use Cases

Chapter 2 told a fictional story. This chapter tells real ones.

These are community networks that have been built, deployed, and are running in the field. Each case study documents:

  • The context — where, for whom, what problems existed
  • The design — what technologies were chosen and why
  • The deployment — what worked, what didn't, lessons learned
  • The current state — is it still running? How has it evolved?
