Lokole and Internet-in-a-Box would welcome a business plan (whether volunteer-based, grant-based or for-profit) from someone willing to operationalize this — making it relatively hassle-free for schools, clinics, libraries and orphanages around the world — that generally do not have access to technical experts.
