Hi Marcin,

I am also interested to work with this algorithm, and for that, form the
last one week, I am trying to run it on some publically available testbeds,
but the worst part is that I receive no logs, I have tried to test the code
locally, as you are doing, running it on your predefined topology it works
(just hte logging stuff, I haven't checked the syn state of the nodes), but
when I try to run the same code on testbeds like Indria or Harvard motelab,
nothing is logged. So, at the moment, I am stucked in how to just make it
run, whenever I will get through it, I will get back to you.

But in the mean time, if you have accounts on the aforementioned testbeds,
could you also run your code over there, lets just say on 3 to 4 nodes
only, just for the sake of clearity.

Regards,
Wasif!
