BattleMeshV9
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 V9 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, BMX6, IEEE 802.11s, OLSR) and watch their ideas compete. If you have implemented an interesting mesh protocol capable of running on OpenWrt Chaos Calmer (15.05) you can take part in the tournament too.
Contents
When
The event takes place on the following dates: Sunday 1st to Saturday 7th of May 2016.
Where
The event will take place at the Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto, Portugal.
The full address location is: Building I Room I-105, Rua Dr. Roberto Frias s/n, 4200-465, Porto, Portugal

If you want to stay at the same room as your friend(s) or family please e-mail us. Payment in advance is required to get the full benefit of the discount.

Payment instructions will be given after filling the registration form. Guests travelling with you are welcome to book for the accommodation package as well. Of course, this package is not compulsory. You can also find your own bed and food supply yourself during the event if you wish to do so.

Our reservations are granted until March 10th March 1st, any late arrangements are possible but subject to availability. Please contact us after this date.

Porto is well served with by international flight connections to Porto Airport - OPO (Francisco Sá Carneiro), 15 km from the city centre. Ryanair and Easyjet provide a large number of cheap connections to major cities in Europe.
Porto Metro system has a direct connection (purple line) between the Airport to the city Centre (Trindade Metro Station) that runs every 20-30 minutes. The ticket costs €1.85 plus €0.6 for a rechargeable card (Andante), that can be used for the rest of your stay. The trip to/from the Airport to the city centre takes about 30 minutes.
For intercontinental flights, please also consider Lisbon Airport - LIS (Portela). From Lisbon Airport to Porto you can take a regional connection from Ryanair or TAP. You can also take the train from Lisbon Oriente to Porto São Bento. The trip should take between 2.30 - 3:00h.
By Train
Porto has two train stations. The main station - Campanhã is located at the edge of the city, while São Bento is located right on the city centre. The Sud Expresso international train service connects Porto to french border, Porto with the French high-speed train – "TGV-Atlantique" which runs between the Spanish border and Paris. Connections between Campanhã to the city centre (Trindade Metro Station) can be done by a direct metro line or by trains.
