We are proud to announce OLSR 0.6.5.3

Notable changes are in IPv6 support, the pud plugin and in fixing a bug which under certain circumstances blocked olsrd from starting properly if there was not enough entropy available.

Details of the changes can be found in the Changelog file.

This is a quick bufix release for 0.6.5.1

There was a logic bug in handling the return value of inet_pton() which resulted in IPv6 support being broken.
This is fixed now.

In addition, Vasilis added a fix for Quagga which closes a memory leak.

Please update in case you use IPv6 or Quagga support.

I started working on the repository maintenance we discussed on the olsr-dev mailinglist.

We have some errors in our git repository which were created during the import of the old mercurial repository.

There is a read only copy of the olsr.org repository at
http://olsr.org/git/olsrd_readonly.git

The main repository will be soon offline (or readonly too). I will post an update to this story when the work is done.

------------------
UPDATE

Okay, maintainance has been finished... the repository is now free of damaged commits.

If you have question, just come to the olsr-dev or olsr-user Mailing list and feel free to ask them.

What does this mean for the current users of the repository?

Decentralizing GSM to Wi-Fi mesh phone calls.
by Alexander Chemeris

Integrating OpenBTS and Serval consists of two core components:

1) Routing systems inter-operation.
2) Numbering systems inter-operation.

Each are explained below.

1. Routing inter-operation was achieved during the Code Sprint hosted at the New
America Foundation in Washington, DC in early June, 2011. By using the OLSR
protocol on both Serval mobiles and on an OpenBTS test node, participants were
able to route IP packets in a flexible way in a mobile ad-hoc network without
any need for manual configuration. The OpenBTS part of the OLSR setup was pretty
smooth, taking roughly half an hour to get everything up, configured and

Henning and me got a time slot to present the Funkfeuer.at community wireless network as well as the OLSR.org work at the IETF80 meeting in Prague.
