I'd imagine the Zollamt might not be the happiest (he mentioned writing "salvage equipment" on the shipping bill), but let's work that out.

<br>
thanks for your kind offer.<br>
<br>
After discussing the topic with some friends on our meeting yesterday I think we<br>
can put the hardware to good use in one way or the other. Two examples would be<br>
installations in refugee camps or give the hardware to people that can't afford<br>
the cost of a freifunk installation.<br>
<br>
Do you have a complete list of the hardware? Can you check the shipping cost to<br>
Berlin? If you can grab another suitcase that would be perfect too!<br>
<br>
If it's too much trouble to send it to Europe I suggest you try to connect<br>
communities in the USA. Maybe the OTI can point you to some communities in need:<br>

We really appreciate your offer. Thanks again!<br>

Best Philipp<br>
