FabFi 2.0-AF wrap-up.

Oi, it's been a long time since the last post. Hard to write when you're gettin' 'er done...

I'm gonna make this short since Amy beat me to just about everything important (I tend to avoid it until I have time to compose something neatly organized and complete, whereas she tends to work on the newsflash model). Anyway, here's the skinny:

Fabfi 2.0 was a gigantic success. In two weeks we moved the FabLab, got the shop bot running, turned out a pile of fabfis, upgraded all the hardware and software and made two new links.

After we left, there was a hardware failure on the 4km link, and one of the little reflectors on the tower pointed in the same direction transparently picked up the slack! (then I broke it from afar before Amy replaced the bad box)

More importantly, we've had another pair come up in our absence, bringing the total number of downlinks off the tower to nine. Live stats and network diagrams are are now available at http://fabfi.fablab.af/stats.php (though they will be slightly broken for the next week while we make some changes) and you can download all the latest files to make everything yourself at http://fabfi.fablab.af/distribution.html.
