Georg, you just put your fingers into an old wound.

It is my understanding that BATMAN has come out of the freifunk community, and wikipedia seems to confirm this:

And further, it appears that there is some amount of criticism of OLSR from the BATMAN camp:
No, not every one in the Freifunk communities believes these claims.
It is probably better not to go back to these senseless "protocol wars" .
This all makes sense to me, but what I don't understand is, why do all (or nearly all ?) of the freifunk networks use OLSR, and continue to use OLSR on the freifunk firmware ?
Are any of the freifunk networks using BATMAN ? If so, what routing metric are they using with it ?
Thanks.
