Up until now (this may change in the coming months as Earthlink pulls out) it was funded through private funds, not public ones. Earthlink has a contract with the non-profit Wireless Philadelphia organization, to build the network on its own dime, and to provide some proceeds to that non-profit organization to address digital divide issues. -- Dana Spiegel Executive Director NYCwireless dana () NYCwireless net www.NYCwireless.net +1 917 402 0422 Read the Wireless Community blog: http://www.wirelesscommunity.info ------------------------------------------- Archives: http://v2.listbox.com/member/archive/247/=now RSS Feed: http://v2.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/247/ Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
