Day 1
Reticulum Community Meetup: Implementations, Migration, and Future
<p>Reticulum is a cryptographic mesh networking stack gaining attention for off-grid and emergency communications. The original Python implementation recently reached v1.0 but its maintainer has stepped back from public engagement, and the license prevents distribution in Debian, F-Droid, and major package managers.</p>
<p>This session brings together Reticulum users and developers to discuss practical migration paths. We will attempt live switching between implementations: Python Reticulum, RetiNet (AGPL fork), and the Rust rnsd daemon. Participants can bring laptops to test interoperability and identify friction points.</p>
<p>Discussion topics: current state of implementations (Python, Rust, C++ microReticulum, Go, Zig), community coordination without upstream, documentation gaps, embedded device support, and real-world deployment experiences.</p>
<p>Bring your RNodes, or laptops with Reticulum installed. No prior Reticulum experience required for observers.</p>
