> What is Battlemesh?
> -------------------
>
> The Wireless Battle of the Mesh is an event that aims at bringing
> together people from across Europe and beyond to test the performance of
> different routing protocols for ad-hoc networks, like Babel,
> B.A.T.M.A.N., BMX, OLSR, 802.11s and Static Routing.
>
> It is a tournament with 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 WirelessBattleMesh (WBM) 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) .
>
> This years Battlemesh will take place from 1st - 7th May 2016 in
> Porto, Portugal.
