Hi Gus,
yes, there was the 2nd Wireless Battle Mesh a couple of weeks ago in Brussels and also a bunch of BATMAN fans/devs had been there :). The results have mostly been of individual tests, every one of those groups was installing their protocols and daemons on those tiny Fonera routers and did mostly debugging, testing and bug-hunting or general layer 1 wifi tests (which turned out to be the most broken one ;) ). All in all every group was pretty quick at providing a set of configurations and proving, that their daemons were running stable on a current OpenWRT trunk version. The WBMII people are going to submit a more detailed report in the next couple of weeks. From the BATMAN side, it was a great chance for a face to face meeting and we used most of the time for discussions about the veeery soon to come next stable BATMAN-Adv release and ideas and plans for the development of the next version (which will basically be getting ready for and into the linux mainline kernel and making BATMAN responding to changes faster). We will also be going to write a little summary of the event and its results and conclusions for BATMAN, which will be published in the next couple of days in the open-mesh-wiki. So stay tuned :).
Cheers, Linus
PS: Just out of curiosity and also because the reports are in progress right now, what kind of results are you expecting?
