      <br>
      Thanks to Aaron for the introduction.<br>
      <br>
      I'm Federico, also known as Nemesis.<br>
      <br>
      I develop the crowdmapping tool known as nodeshot
      <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/ninuxorg/nodeshot">https://github.com/ninuxorg/nodeshot</a><br>
      Used by some communities:<br>

      </ul>
      While developing nodeshot, I started to understand that even if we
      develop different tools, these tools can be composed of smaller
      libraries that can interoperate and even be shared by different
      projects, like explained in my previous message:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://lists.funkfeuer.at/pipermail/interop-dev/2015-May/000392.html">https://lists.funkfeuer.at/pipermail/interop-dev/2015-May/000392.html</a><br>
      <br>
      Recently, together with Mitar (wlan slovenia), Kotsko (wlan
      slovenia), Henning (olsr) and with the feedback got from other
      routing protocol developers like Antonio (batman-adv), Simon
      (batman-adv) we started working on a standard json interchange
      format for interoperability:
      <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/interop-dev/json-for-networks">https://github.com/interop-dev/json-for-networks</a><br>
      <br>
      Currently i'm looking for people that are interested to develop
      features like:<br>
      <ul>
        <li>detect changes in network topology</li>
        <li>configuration generator (probably starting from the NetJSON
          DeviceConfiguration object we are trying to define here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/interop-dev/json-for-networks#network-device-configuration">https://github.com/interop-dev/json-for-networks#network-device-configuration</a>)</li>
        <li>a django app for influxdb (timeseries / statistics / network
          metrics)</li>
        <li>a javascript library to visualize NetworkGraph objects
          <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/interop-dev/json-for-networks#network-graph">https://github.com/interop-dev/json-for-networks#network-graph</a></li>
        <li>an olsrd2 plugin to output NetworkGraph objects</li>
        <li>a batman-vis plugin to output NetworkGraph objects</li>
      </ul>
      If you are also interested in similar feature please get in touch.<br>

      <pre wrap="">Hi new members to this list!


Let me start off with some brief history:

We started the interop-dev list some years ago now after a meeting of community wireless networks in Roma at ninux / fusolab. Basically the idea back then was that the community wireless networks are re-inventing their stuff all over the place in parallel. Since we are not financially powerful as large corporations or so, we need to be efficient with our time.

Hence the first idea to work on one node database. However, it turned out quickly that there was no single agreement on a single software: community wireless folks love to hack on "their" own open source system. So the next idea was to standardise an API or basic functionality.

And this is where we are now. I see fantastic progress by a couple of people, mostly Federico right now. 

But... this being said, now it's your turn for the new members to this list to speak up!
Do you want to briefly introduce yourselves?
What brought you here? What motivates you? What do you want to see done? What do you want to contribute?


Thanks,
Aaron.
