Re: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] Plug-ins

Hi,

Just wondering if there are any plans to introduce a plug-in interface to BATMAN? I am especially keen to see a Nameservice plugin, or any other service advertisement-type plugin.

the main idea behind batman is to create a small, lightweight and easy to use routing daemon. Without bloating the code or "spamming" the network with unneccessary traffic. Hence no such plug-in interface is planned or wanted at the moment. Personally, I like the concept of creating these features one layer above batman so that these "services" can run indepently from the routing algorithm. Currently FX from Phenoelit is working on a nameservice which does exactly that.
