I am currently developing a mesh router solution for several clients. I have been using batman-adv in this project for almost a year (using OpenWRT), and it has all worked fantastically. Thanks so much guys. I now have a requirement for GPS logging functionality, along with passing other data between nodes. I have already written a simple layer3 protocol for this purpose, but this was before ALFRED. ALFRED provides almost all the functionality I need apart from the fact that I really need to embed the alfred code within my own application. I could use it as is via a sys call, but it would be so much better to include the code. What are your feelings regarding splitting the alfred code into a library with can be included in other user applications, and an alfred client program that uses this library? I'm quite prepared to give quite a bit of my own time to doing this if you like the idea.

best regards Steve Thornton
