Byzantium linux might be an interesting component:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://project-byzantium.org/">http://project-byzantium.org/</a><br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://linuxfreedom.com/byzantium/">http://linuxfreedom.com/byzantium/</a><br>

But this will of course only allow the people with it already
installed to communicate (and give away installs to neighbors). The
