I can propose to use the OLSR routing daemon. It provides quite nicely
for a number of meshes such as freifunk.net, funkfeuer.at (map at
http://sandwich.funkfeuer.at/googletopo ). OLSR.org took a very solid
approach: it integrated developments of other routing protocols (hazy
link state routing etc) on a as-needed basis. It works in practice.


How about a google sommer of code project "adapting OLSR to the needs of
olpc"? Several things come to mind:
  - IP autoconfig
  - autoservice discovery 
  - autosync 
etc

best regards,
aaron.
