[MLB-WIRELESS] Wiki pages for towns outside Melbourne

[Dan Flett]

That's true.  But as far as I can tell, the road, river, and contour
data seems to only exist between the 144th and 146th meridians.
Ballarat's town centre lies just west of the 144th meridian.  So you
could register a node there but without a road map background it'd be
hard for people to see where in the town a node is.

I haven't tried it myself, but can anyone with a node in Locfinder
request an IP block?  Or is it necessary to specify an OSPF region
first?

Cheers,

Dan

Locfinder will still accept and display nodes from these areas - it just
won't show it on http://melbourne.wireless.org.au/nodes

The acceptable coordinate range is a rectangle that covers all of vic,
and obviously some of SA/NSW as well...
