  • Abstract
    There is a variety of community networks out there. In this paper we try to shed a light on the community network landscape by presenting the results of a questionnaire filled in by different community network organisations around the world. We demonstrate the variety of infrastructure used and the different management approaches of the network within those communities. We also show the common challenges of the communities and provide pointers to tackle those challenges.
