From jrforster at mac.com Tue Aug 15 14:15:55 2006 From: jrforster at mac.com (Jim Forster) Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2006 14:15:55 -0700 Subject: [WNDW] Announcing AirJaldi Summit, Dharamsala, Oct. 2006 Message-ID: <5FE89B22-535B-447D-9074-AD318CFE646E@mac.com> FYI. Some of the WNDW contributors will be attending this event. BTW, we found a printer in Delhi which has printed 1000 copies of WNDW for the event participants. They cost only about $1.20 each, even with very nice paper and some color prints! -- Jim Wireless Technology Summit ? Dharamsala 2006 The Tibetan Technology Center (TibTec) will host the AirJaldi Summit on wireless technologies in Dharamsala, India in October 2006. TibTec has partnered with the Djursland International Institute of Rural Wireless Broadband (DIIRWB) and will join the World Summits on Free Information Infrastructure (WSFII) to deliver a conference and extended wireless training workshops in October. The conference will be held from October 22nd through 25th in Dharamsala, India. The training workshops will span a ten period directly after the conference. The theme of the summit is ?Empowering Communities Through Wireless Networks?. The Air Jaldi Summit will attract wireless technology experts and community activists from India, Europe, North America, Israel, and Australia.
