[Chapter-delegates] VIDEO: NYC Mesh presentation at NSF WINS Challenge Demo Day @ Mozilla

[Joly MacFie]

 With a first place prize of $400k, our fingers are crossed for NYC Mesh on
this one-  that would buy a lot of antennas & routers! However they are up
against some formidable competition including Monique Tate's team
<http://detroitcommunitytech.org/eii> from Detroit, who won Stage 1.
