BattleMeshV6
We would like to give to the 'Battle of the Mesh' the flavor of a tournament with a social character. If you are a mesh networking enthusiast, community networking activist, or have an interest in mesh networks you might find this bunch of crazy folks gathering for the Wireless Battle of the Mesh V6 very interesting. This event is also an opportunity to meet developers from the most popular open source mesh protocol implementations (Babel, B.A.T.M.A.N. L3 and L2, BMX, IEEE 802.11s, OLSR) and watch their ideas compete. If you have implemented an interesting mesh protocol capable of running on OpenWrt Attitude Adjustment you can take part in the tournament too.
Contents
Where
The BattleMeshV6 will be held at Aalborg, Denmark. The testing / hacking / talks will take place in the Aalborg University. Two larger rooms have been booked for the BattleMesh participants. Expect to find an internet connection, plenty of space, video projector, canteen, and some curious students.
Some first impressions (Aalborg, University site, pumpkins):
