Greetings!
Could you please clarify which licence applies to B.A.T.M.A.N? batman.c states it's GPL v2. The site (https://www.open-mesh.net) suggests it's Creative Commons (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/) which forbids commercial use.
Why do I ask? We are an ISP in Pereslavl-Zalessky, Russia and look towards converting our little multispot WiFi network into a mesh. Yes we are commercial, but built entirely on free software. May I use B.A.T.M.A.N as a routing protocol?
Thanks,
