Hello, We are a group of students that are currently pursuing our undergraduate degrees in Computer Science form Pune Institute of Computer Technology (PICT), Maharashtra, India. We will be graduating in June 2015 and are currently in our final year. For our final year B.E project we have selected the domain as Computer Networks and would be very interested in working in the field of routing protocols for multihop ad-hoc mesh networks, which is where we stumbled upon the B.A.T.M.A.N protocol. Over the past few weeks we have been extensively studying the various features and working principles which has allowed this protocol to prosper. It will be a great learning opportunity for us to work with B.A.T.M.A.N and in turn work with you. As per given on the open-mesh.org website for contributions, we would appreciate if you could steer us towards the direction of choosing the right topic and working towards culminating a project in the same, which would be helpful for the community. Following are a few details which includes information about us, which would help you in making an informed decision:
1) Group name: A-DRS It is our constant belief that inquisitiveness is the best teacher. For each one of us, coming together as a group has allowed us to begin the journey of learning and innovating.
