Vegas Open Network Wiki:About

This wiki is the official documentation space for **Vegas Open Network (VONet)** – a nonprofit building a community-owned internet in Las Vegas.

It exists to support volunteers, participants, partners, and anyone curious about how we work. If you're helping install equipment, organizing outreach, working on policy, or just learning how to get connected, this is your go-to resource.

What You'll Find Here

• Policies and procedures (volunteer, safety, privacy, etc.)
• Training guides and installation walkthroughs
• Network design notes and equipment standards
• Governance info (advisory council, conflict of interest, etc.)
• Public planning documents and meeting notes
• Community contributions and FAQs

Everything here is written to be clear, useful, and editable by contributors. If something’s outdated or missing, we encourage you to help fix it.

Who Maintains This

This wiki is maintained by the VONet team, along with community volunteers. You don’t need to be an expert to help improve it—just follow the Network Commons principles of openness, mutual respect, and shared knowledge.
