Re: [gaia] Uplink?

Hi,

Thanks for the idea. Perhaps we have forgotten the uplink a bit, or
sometimes it is implicit.

Some examples:

2.4. Crowdshared approaches, led by the people and third party stakeholders

In these cases, we could explicitly say that the connection shared by means
of Wi-Fi is a residential one (e.g. DSL).

5.2.1.2.  Access to the Internet

5.2.1.2.1.  Web browsing proxies

   A number of federated proxies MAY provide web browsing service for
   the users.  Other services (file sharing, skype, etc.) are not
   usually allowed in many Alternative Networks due to bandwidth
   limitations.

In this paragraph, we could talk about the kind of connectivity is provided
between the Community Network and the Internet.

Is this your point?

Thanks,

Jose
