B4RN is building an FTTH network in the deeply rural areas around the Lune Valley and forest of Bowland AONB. The area covers 420Km2 but contains only 3500 properties. The project will deliver PtP 1Gbs symmetrical to every property within the 23 parishes included in the scheme. With an average dig distance of >200m per property this would normally be considered totally uneconomic for any...

How hard is it to build a network which is independent of London?
Can you take an existing network with a heavy London concentration and turn it into something more distributed? What about being regional from scratch?
What might it look like to the rest of the UK if a significant network failure were to hit London?
New regional connectivity initiatives in the UK are currently proving...

Ansible differs from tools like cfengine and puppet in one major area: it's push-based. In other words, there's...
