the future Internet. *##*

** Community networks
- For those of you who are new to the term, CNs are infrastructure deployed by
  organized groups of people for the self-provision of broadband networking
  that works and grows according to their own interests.
- Like some Free software projects, they are based on open participation, open
  and transparent management, and distributed ownership.  This is a big step
  beyond private and state-owned infrastructures.


- The previous characteristics translate into open, free (as in freedom) and
  neutral networks, values in consonance with the Free software movement.
  Some CNs even have mutual agreement texts similar to Free software liceses.
- Atypical as it may seem, the EU in its Digital Agenda regards CNs as
  fundamental for the universalization of broadband networking. *##*
