At http://groups.yahoo.com/group/osf_ow/ there is a bilingual
discussion group on the creation of a project similar to "Île sans
fil" (http://wwww.ilesansfil.org/) in the Gatineau/Ottawa area.

These folks have been to Ottawa twice to give talks about their
project.  Their first talk is here:

In brief, they provide the technical expertise and support for
wireless access points in cafes/bars/etc so that any may use the
wifi.  That's something I'd like to see in Ottawa.
