[Server-devel] Fwd: Finding an "Internet in the Box" partner for a humanitarian aid project

[Adam Holt]

Hi Vera,

I can make several recommendations of IIAB implementers who've worked in
Nigeria and others who do excellent work outside Nigeria too.

Please write me privately and we'll arrange a call to explain these options
if they are useful in context with you specific needs,

Adam
