Hi everyone, I'm Sean O'Brien and will be setting up FreedomBox at the Yale Law School as part of an initiative called Yale Privacy Lab https://privacylab.yale.edu

I'm familiar with Debian and FreedomBox and will be setting these up with Raspberry Pis.

The current plan is to have two Rasp Pi 3's, and focus on setting up Jabber/XMPP for our law students and legal clinics here, as well as Murmur for conference calls like this one. As time goes on, we'll be looking at more Web apps, perhaps GNU Social (we would be more interested in Mastodon, but I realize it's based on Ruby and would require installing more libraries).

I just got permission from our CTO at YLS to set these up officially in the server room at the law school, and we'll be doing two events showcasing FreedomBox:

For our part, the Android app would be great to get the word out on campus and make sure people connecting at Yale know the FBx's we set up exist on the network.
