(Why) do you think it is the best protocol for ad-hoc networks? Or do you mean
this program is the best implemenatation of rfc3561?
Hi, and thank you for your answer !
I mean that it *could* be the best implementation of rfc3561.
Well, when I was searching the web for information about it (few month
ago), this was the impression I had.
What is the largest scale (test) setup which has been done with
aodv-uu/rfc3561?
</seriously curious>
I cannot answer this. I personally used it successfully with 3
computers. For largest scale test, please refer to upstream author.

It must have been tested by some other universities as well. There is an
IPv6 patch provided by the University of Buckingham, for example.
I think it would be a good idea to make it available for every Debian
users.
Probably, yes. But we are in a freeze atm, so no new packages are possible.
That's also why I'm currently not interested in sponsoring aodv-uu, I rather
concentrate on fixing release related stuff. "Sorry" :-)
I thought it could go to unstable in the meanwhile.
Anyway, releasing lenny is more important, and this package is not
something critical.
This can wait a little, and be sponsored after the "lenny rush", don't
you think ? :)
Please CC me on your answer.
Done. (No need to cc: me, I read debian-mentors@.)
Thanks. And I won't cc: you, I promise. :D
Regards,
Fabien
