<DIV><SPAN class=233262306-06022003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>If you
have a public access point which anyone can access, it makes a hell of a lot
more sense to continue using simply 'wireless.org.au' (look at <A
href="http://melbourne.wireless.org.au/wiki/?RFC">http://melbourne.wireless.org.au/wiki/?RFC</A>).
However, for point to point links, it makes more sense to have
to-from.melb.wireless.org.au, or something similar (eg.
ABC-DEF.melb.wireless.org.au).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=233262306-06022003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I
personally don't see any sense about joining a network with an ID
of 'nodeFSO.wireless.org.au', for example, when your node isn't
FSO.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

regards to locfinder and ap’s ssids, I believe it might be a good idea to have
some sort of naming conventions in regards to them. Makes it a bit easier when
stumbling for MW nodes, and would look a bit
neater.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>
