This year, the traditional meeting for the free civil networks in Catalonia (SAX) will be extended to new contents, will take a week and will be extended to new participants worldwide and therefore affiliated to the WSFII (World Summit for Free Information Infrastructures). The registration will be free and everyone interested in developing non-proprietary networks is invited. The main purpose of the SAX & WSFII event in Catalonia is to empower and develop at all levels the civilian, open and free infrastructures as an alternative to the classic proprietary/corporate owned or operated network models. Around this objective, we plan to have presence with panelists from all the actors involved, including local government, enterprises of any size, regulator authority, and of course, the geek community involved in the research and development activities and the users in general. You should come to this SAX2007 & WSFII event if you are part of a user community or you want to start one, a local government or local business and you whish to share your experience or understand how free networks can become a success and sustainable instead of just draining funds to feed unprofitable "business" models.
