etc. 802.11n thrives off these multipath effects.
As I said - first solve layer 1 2 issues and then think about layer 3 meshing.
I hope I could help.

BTW Richard, as far as I remember the problems with 802.11s seemed to be:
1) the standard is not a standard and it was intentionally crippled
2) the drivers were very b0rked and broken (and Marvel did a terrible job
with the driver software)
Scalability to less than 30 laptops

Well - the issue is IMHO that OLPC always sold the public on the mesh

Let me re-phrase what I said before all the rumors

would it make sense to at least enter that request into the projectdb
since that is what it was made for?
(apart from the feature requests which will be taken care of at some
time, it does hold the data and hence it can help in tracking the XOs)
On a different note: in larger mesh networks

dang! thanks, you found a bug. Actually a regression. It already worked.
Will have to investigate.

The laptop mesh very well might. The need to handle this is one

Running activities in the jhbuild (sugar-emulator) environment
on Ubuntu is going to be tough. We've not done much to support
running Sugar on distros other than Fedora 7. That could be an
interesting project, but certainly it would require you to
upgrade at least to something like Feisty
very interested over here as well...
Would it be out of the way to post the original proposal?
BTW - on a side note: polychronis: great work with the mesh view!
Simon Dorner mentioned that having small faces of the kids in the
mesh view would be even better.
Humans tend to remember faces
groups.
I strongly believe that the local groups over the long run can have
an important impact to the whole project.
So let's get started!
thanks for your attention,
