1 Introduction

SeattleSpeeds is a joint project between M-Labs and Open Seattle for the City of Seattle. Much like, say, http://www.speedtest.net/ the web app performs speed tests of network performance. The novelty is that the information is collected by the City of Seattle and plotted on a map as a civic resource. The source code and the data are open source.

The code is being developed and deployed by the City of Seattle first, yet it is a goal for the codebase to be easily redeployed for other localities.

4 Project email list

(The mailing list is very quite these days.)

There is a fully public mailing list: seanetmap@googlegroups.com

Anyone can join (signing up for getting emails), anyone can post (send a group email). Note: the list is fully public with a searchable archive.

5 Historical

Note: this project was originally named SEANetMap ("SEA" for Seattle's airport code). The name SEANetMap is just something I came up with spontaneously on the spot when we needed a name for the repostitory on GitHub.
