Editing Wireless community network (section)

===Community network software===
By 2003, the Sidney Wireless community project had launched the NodeDB software, to facilitate the work of community networks by mapping the nodes participating in a [[wireless mesh network]]. Nodes needed to be registered in the [[database]], but the software generated a list of adjacent nodes. When registering a node that participated in a community network, the maintainer of the node could leave a note on the hardware, antenna reach and firmware in operation and so find other network community members who were willing to participate in a mesh.<ref>{{cite book |author = Adrian Mackenzie |date= 2010 |title= Wirelessness: Radical Empiricism in Network Cultures |url = https://archive.org/details/wirelessnessradi00mack |url-access = limited |publisher= MIT Press |isbn= 9780262014649 | page = [https://archive.org/details/wirelessnessradi00mack/page/n138 130]}}</ref>
