Hi Nikilaos,

That's great to hear. There are quite a few large real-life testbeds 
running olsrd now which is just great! The next release(0.4.8) is just 
around the corner and it will feature _lots_ of new code and therefore 
lots of new bugs ;-) so test feedback is very much appreciated.
The c-base(Berlin)/freifunk community have contributed a brand new and 
very promising link quality routing scheme(much more infor about this 
when 0.4.8 is released) that will be part of 0.4.8 and I think this 
should be very interesting for anybody running mesh networks to try out. 
This kind of stuff is the future of MANET routing IMO!

You'll hear more about 0.4.8 in a matter of days.

- Andreas
