Technical meeting on the project status update for the Google Summer of Code: OpenWrt integration with Bird2 (UCI and LuCI) for BGP and Babel protocols.
OpenWrt is a free operating system for routers, UCI and LuCI are ways to configure OpenWrt. Bird2 is software that can manage routing protocols such as BGP (used on the internet) and Babel (a simple protocol for mesh networks). These are some of the technologies that can be used to manage a telecommunications network in a community-driven way.
From IoT Barcelona and The Things Network Catalunya, they are organizing a meetup to welcome the summer by sharing what everyone currently has on their desk. The idea is to hold a “what’s on your desk” event in person to take a closer look at what they are creating: prototypes, products, designs, inventions, or even ideas that are still only written down in a notebook. Everything is welcome, as long as there’s no need to sign any NDA.
