freitasm: I have been told the project seems to be going ahead well, even with broader support than expected.

Community involvement will be from the end of the month, but we should announce details from sometime next week.

As I said, whoever replied here will get an email with more details before everyone else.

Always keen to help/be involved

Is it mounting portable Cell-sites or free WiFi on burger vans to cope with network capacity at big events?
