[Advisors] ARIN definition of community networks

[Marita Moll]

Hello again. Some months ago we contributed to a definition of community 
networks for ARIN (American Registry for Internet Numbers). With a few 
amendments, this is where that definition stands at the moment. Could we 
adopt this as our official definition? If so, I will have it added to 
our website.

"A community network is a network organized and operated by a volunteer 
group, not-for-profit, non-profit, charitable organization, or 
educational institution for the purpose of providing free or low-cost 
connectivity, or other Information Technology services to persons or 
entities within their community. Critical functions may be handled by 
paid staff, but volunteers play a large role in offering services 
available through community networks."
