[olsr-dev] OLSR LQ Defaults

[Andreas Tønnesen]

Sven-Ola, everybody,

Sounds good to me. IMO it's very cool that we get some defaults
based on rather long-term real-life usage :-)
If nobody objects to this these will be the LQ defaults for
0.4.10.

(We're very interested in this sort of feedback before the
release!)
