Aaron, your sarcasm brings nothing to the discussion at hand.

When we last met in Paris, I was under the impression that you agreed
with me about the limitations of naïve link-state; you told me about
some very interesting research into more advanced forms of link-state
that you are doing.

Unlike your work, which brings new ideas to the table, OLSRv2 brings
nothing; it is just the reformulation of old OLSR into an overly-complex
packet format.
