Holger Hans Peter Freyther holger at freyther.deHi, another year, another congress, another OpenBSC installation. There are some changes though. The most noticable one is that we are at a new venue and this has various implications. * A lot more space to cover and challenges to radio planning. How many BTS do we need? Would we use a dual TRX setup? Only in some rooms? Can we cheat and use an amplifier? What kind of patch-work equipment do we get? * I wanto to have increased stability at this congress. We are mostly using the nitb for the congress setup and there are various bugs that I would like to address before. I believe it is time we offer GSM as a reliable service. This does not mean there is no room for experiments but they need to be planned and scheduled. E.g. experiments with tsunami warnings, GPRS at night.. etc. * Some increased logistic issues. We really need to plan what we need and how we get this transported to Hamburg and the CCH. All the small things like boxes of patch cables, routers, screws, locks, belts... I have started this wiki page[1] to track our requirements. The basic idea is we have a task and someone that is responsible for executing it or if he starts to drop it.. officially return the task. cheers holger [1] http://openbsc.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/FieldTests/29c3
