= Hosting =

Zoobab is organising the event at his parent's place, which offers a large area (50 ares) where you can put your tent, with electricity, an ethernet cable, and  showers and toilets facilities.

The house also offers enough indoor place to sleep (bring your floor matelas and sleeping bag).

= Transport =

 * Train: Florenville is easily reachable by train (Take the Line Brussels-Luxembourg, change at Libramont, and take the small train to Florenville-Virton); note that there is also the possibility to go to Marbehan, and ask for car pickking up in advance.
 * Road: 

= Goal =

* Install a mesh testbed of 30 nodes (fonera based) (zoobab owns 10 of them)
* longshots: Florenville-Arlon Longshot 36,5km (10 Apr 2003 18:45) - Longshot between Florenville (Waveguide 32slots placed on the church tower) and Arlon (Yagi of XavierVL). Distance 36,5km. Data transfert of 50ko/sec during 5 minutes but we didn't succeed to do the same after, we were quite disapointing... We think that the fresnel zone was not so good to realize a good link. Some pictures here.
