The Wireless Battle of the Mesh is an event that aims at bringing together people from across Europe to test the performance of different routing protocols for ad-hoc networks, like [[http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/babel/|Babel]], [[http://www.open-mesh.org|B.A.T.M.A.N.]], [[http://olsr.org|OLSR]], and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_routing|Static Routing]]. | The purpose of the event is to further topics such as right to connectivity, community-owned infrastructure and related free open source projects. |

It is 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 want to check this out ! | == Attending == |

The goal of the WirelessBattleMesh events is to set-up hands-on testbed for each available mesh routing protocol with a standard test procedure for the different mesh networks. During the different WBM events, similar hardware and software configuration will be used based on the OpenWRT BoardSupportPackage and packages for each protocol implementation. The WBM events are also a great opportunity to develop testing tools for PHY/MAC radio layers (drivers, scripts and PHY analyzers). | Attending the convention always is free of charge. To make joining the event as affordable as possible, an accommodation package is offered which provides low cost accommodation. |
