This is an excellent idea! Many will benefit from learning these things 
and being part of such a group or a federation of groups/individuals. 
There is a gap to be bridged between the availability of free software, 
oshw and being able to self-host, achieving full autonomy.

I also think that this already implies or calls for a combination of 
software freedom and networking freedom. This is very important in the 
present context.

I just responded to this on Mastodon. I wanted to reiterate it here too.
