Maybe you should ask this on the IETF manet lists. Freifunk/Funkfeuer has not 
published any research data I think.

There will be a 0.5.7.0 release at the beginning of the next month, but this 
is just the current stable together with NIIT (easy IPv4 traffic handling over 
IPv6 mesh networks), smart gateways (asymmetric tunnels towards the internet 
gateway to prevent gateway flapping) and some other new stuff.

As soon as the release is done we will start porting all fixes made in the 
stable branch to the development version. After this development (especially 
OLSRv2) can continue on the development branch.

If we are really lucky we will see a 0.6.0 (or 1.0.0 ?) stable at the end of 
the year.

It's not bad, but has not received enough testing.
