Hi Misko. I strongly believe before going to actually implement something one shall explore existing systems first and if it is possible, try to simulate a new system using the existing one. I propose that you and your friends try to set up a flexnet system using fixed links at single frequency. You may try to add and remove a link and see how fast the change will be redistributed around the other nodes using shared frequency and very low bandwidth channel and how much of the shared bandwidth will be used just for protocol overhead. When you setup your test, try to make sure only two transmitters will hear each other. I believe the probability of packet clashes will be so high, that the network will not work.
