I got a small grant to tackle wifi multicast issues from comcast research... but it's not enough. We need to translate some stuff about wifi devices in particular from and to chinese, rewrite at least 2 more drivers, and spread BQL to ever more devices. That requires tedious, patient work, and exhaustive testing that needs to be done at a more rapid pace than to date on the next 10 billion devices. There is no way in hell that I'm willing to tackle that without serious funding, so I'm applying for a Shuttleworth grant due may 14. I've engaged the services of a videographer, fresh out of Afghanistan, to put together the 5 minute video required. Primary shooting starts tomorrow. If you would like to contribute a bit (any length - there are other grants to apply for!) I mostly just want 5-30 second segments filmed on a cellphone about how the bufferbloat, cerowrt, or make wifi fast projects affected you and your life. Please get something in before saturday (tomorrow!) afternoon, if you want in. Also, there will be a giant (filmed) walk to the top of a mountain in los gatos saturday and sunday at 7AM. if you are in the california area and want to join us on the shoot, please let me know privately. --=20 Dave T=C3=A4h Let's go make home routers and wifi faster!
