Dear all, Babel 0.91 is available from
http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/files/babel-0.91.tar.gz http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/files/babel-0.91.tar.gz.asc For more information about the Babel routing protocol please see http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/babel/ This version fixes a bug that caused request to be spuriously repeated 7 times even when they could be satisfied. It also makes update buffering per-interface, and makes the heuristics for sending triggered updates and unfeasible requests somewhat more conservative. All together, these changes make Babel dramatically less chatty, apparently without increasing convergence time. The protocol remains entirely compatible with 0.90. Upgrading to 0.91 is recommended, as it will make your network noticeably less noisy. Enjoy, Juliusz 10 November 2008: babel 0.91 * Maintain buffered updates per-interface, which makes multi-interface nodes significantly less noisy. * Changed the strategy for dealing with unfeasible routes to be slightly more generous while still avoiding loops. * Fixed a bug that would cause multi-hop requests to be spuriously resent. * Made a number of micro-optimisations throughout.
