[olsr-dev] httpinfo plugin

[Andrew Hodel]

If there is an interest other then mine in having external files for the 
httpinfo plugin that allow users to change the css layout and default 
text of the output, I would be willing to implement it.

I have cross posted this to the users and dev lists to get user input.

The only problem I can see with this is multiple olsrd config files in 
/etc, this could be fixed by creating an /etc/olsrd directory for all 
olsrd config files.

Any comments.. anyone?



Thanks,
Andrew Hodel
