[Olsr-users] olsrd 0.6.2 packages with GTK GUI for Ubuntu

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I'm currently playing around with things to get to know the code base.  I saw that there were recent commits to gui/linux-gtk, so I figure it must have some worth.  From what I've seen, it could be useful for a very simple way to get people started with mesh on their computer.

My point of view for the dev work I'm doing is: how to we make it so people who know nothing at all actually get mesh networking working.  It seems to me so far, to focus has been how to get it working well, targetting advanced users.

If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it.            - Thomas Jefferson
