Interesting model:<br>
<br>
You can be a Linus and offer free wireless to all Aliens<br>
<br>
You can be a Bill and receive a cut of a charge to all Aliens (Linus surfs for free)<br>
<br>
You can be an Alien and surf for free on Linus hotspots, or pay at Bill Hotspots<br>
<br>
But I think the fee model goes against our grain which is to be entirely free to users.<br>
<br>
I think Wifidog needs to be a federation (like FON) of shared users (so
an ISF user can log into WT hotspot and vice versa). I pitched this to
ISF but they don't think they're ready yet. It will come - the
capability is there if we use RADIUS servers to maintain users and
create domain trusts as necessary. We could even include (authenticate)
Wireless Nomad users or other domains like google users (provided they
offer RADIUS).<br>
