“众包计算机网络”是指由公民和组织建立的网络基础设施,他们汇集资源并协调努力,使这些网络成为现实。“社区网络”是众包网络的一个子集,其结构是开放的,自由的和中立的。在这些社区中,基础设施是由参与者建立的,并作为共同资源进行管理。许多众包经验在社区网络中蓬勃发展。本文讨论了guifi.net的案例,这是一个有数千名参与者每天使用的社区网络的成功案例,重点是其原则和社区内开发的众包流程和工具,以及它们在guifi.net生态系统中发挥的作用;其实施的现状;其可衡量的地方影响;以及十多年来吸取的经验教训。
The expression “crowdsourced computer networks” refers to a network infrastructure built by citizens and organisations who pool their resources and coordinate their efforts to make these networks happen. “Community networks” are a subset of crowdsourced networks that are structured to be open, free, and neutral. In these communities the infrastructure is established by the participants and is managed as a common resource. Many crowdsourcing experiences have flourished in community networks. This paper discusses the case of guifi.net, a success case of a community network daily used by thousands of participants, focusing on its principles and the crowdsourcing processes and tools developed within the community, and the role they play in the ecosystem that is guifi.net; the current status of its implementation; its measurable local impact; and the lessons learned in more than a decade.
