We need to have (regular) meetings where (new) people can come
with their questions/problems and we can flash new devices
together. The meetings beside c-base are not working right now.

<p>I give this idea/problem a "thumb up"! <br>
</p>
<p>This is a topic I have already discussed with some
freifunk-members I privately met occasionally. I met them
afterwards as I had problems to flash and to start my own
Freifunk router, I found no substantial immediate help. For sure,
I tried to get contact for some selfish motive. (Is a Freifunk
knot selfish?) <br>
</p>
<p>I understand the problem of the hard working professionals not to
cope with "kindergarden problems" after work. I share their
experience. <br>
</p>
<p>It is frustrating to travel cross Berlin just to find the
location is closed. (My own experience.) Tip: c-base is always
busy not only for Freifunk! But it is more a party? A barbecue
party in summer - why not? May be I am wrong, I am just a
guest/intruder there. <br>
</p>
<p>My (private) advice is a fixed speaking time to be (mostly) sure
to find somebody to speak with about such problems, or even as a
nerd to find somebody to speak at all about computer related
things. The private component might follow up. I think, we have
some social responsibility as well for IT-Nerds that make our
IT-Progression. These have a hard standing in our regulated
society! (I speak as an IT project manager for some years prior to
my crash into teaching.) <br>
</p>
<p>I think Kirchofstraße 54 Berlin/Neukoelln is a good place for
such. There should be a contact person at defined time(s) to solve
problems immediate if able or to register a problem to pass to a
knowing person of the community. I am not a computer scientist,
but may be I can pass problems to the pros. <br>
</p>
<p>As a <span class="t_text">computer layman</span> <span
class="t_text">I offer </span>to spend some regulated hours
(not days) by appointment at Kirchofstraße 54 to help. <br>
