just a quick question, i dont know if anyone noticed my last post about 
this, but whats going to happen with ip allocation? how exactly are the ips 
going to be assigned and what type of ip will they be? (ie public, like on 
the internet, or private, like on a LAN)
Probably more importantly, who is going to manage ip assignment? if we get 
everyone assigning their own ips nobody will ever be able to talk to each 
other well and wouldnt that slow down traffic?
Also, would we all get domain names? instead of www we could have wifi or 
something like that to stop confusion on the net.
If we used public ip like on the internet, who would we talk to and how 
much would it cost?

By the way, as well as showing up at linux installfests, what about the 
swapmeets on sundays? I often see Melbourne PC Users Group with a table...
