  Metropolitan Network; (research centres) Universitat Politècnica de
  Catalunya, Fraunhofer Institute for Communication, Information Processing
  and Ergonomics, Interdisciplinary Institute for Broadband Technology; (NGOs)
  OPLAN Foundation, Pangea.
- Objective: Provide a testbed and associated tools and knowledge for
  researchers to experiment on real community networks.

** Testbeds
- Environments built with real hardware for realistic experimental research on
  network technologies.
- Wireless, both outdoor (HU's Berlin RoofNet, MIT Roofnet) and indoor (IBBT's
  w-iLab.t, CERTH's NITOS, WINLAB's ORBIT).  Problems: limited local scale,
  controlled environment, no resource sharing between experiments.
- Internet: PlanetLab, planet-scale testbed with resource sharing on nodes.
  Main inspiration for Community-Lab.

** Community-Lab: a testbed for community networks
- The testbed developed by CONFINE.
# Node maps here for CNs with captures from node DBs.
