>> About the Wireless Battle Mesh
>> ==============================
>>
>> 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 Babel,
>> B.A.T.M.A.N., BMX6, OLSR, 802.11s and Static Routing.
>>
>> 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 !
>>
>> The goal of the Wireless Battle Mesh 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 Board-Support-Package 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) .
