Good notes. Couple of random thoughts ...

A) From our perspective, my (uninformed, as I am still learning the pragmas of 
OLPC) view is that, for > 50 nodes, with lots of network traffic, we might have 
to go to a powered, infrastructure mode; (I am ready to be corrected) 
B) Most probably other constraints will kick-in before we reach the ZeroConf 
limits
C) A ZeroConf substrate is applicable not only at the connectivity layer but 
also at the collaborative layer
D) Unless we are leveraging the bus for other functionalities, avahi *might* be 
slightly heavyweight; we might have to implement ZeroConf on the bare metal
E) Also, we might need more integration and context-awareness between the mesh 
layer and the ZeroConf layer; may be even optimize some of the exchanges.
Thoughts ?
Cheers
