201 201 there (CD and RD). All but low-level experiments are possible using direct
202 202 interfaces. In this way CONFINE helps extend the CN.
203 203 - CONFINE can also extend the CN by setting up a physically separated cloud of
204 204 connected nodes at a site controlled by a partner (e.g. campus). All kinds
205 205 of experiments are possible using direct interfaces. Users are warned about
206 206 the experimental nature of the network.

208 -* Recap
208 +* Participate!
209 +We introduced you to Community-Lab, a new testbed being developed by the
210 +CONFINE project to support research targeted to allow CNs to become a key part
211 +of Internet infrastructure in the future.

210 -- Community networks are an emerging field to provide citizens with
211 - connectivity in a sustainable and distributed manner in which the owners of
212 - the networks are the users themselves.
213 -- Research on this field is necessary to support CNs' growth while improving
214 - their operation and quality.
215 -- Experimental tools are still lacking because of the peculiarities of CNs.
216 -- The CONFINE project aims to fill this gap by deploying Community-Lab, a
217 - testbed for existing community networks.
213 +Community networks and researchers: We look forward to your participation!

222 220 # Ivan: Describe simple experiment, show diagram (UML-like timing diagram?
223 221 # small animation?) showing the steps from slice creation to instantiation,
224 222 # activation, deactivation and deletion for that example experiment.
