[Olsr-users] dlep-app reg.

[Ben West]

Hi Henning and Vignesh!

Interesting and encouraging to read that dlep-app is undergoing revision
and rejuvenation!

I must admit to having been quietly admiring the version residing at the
URLs below, with the hope of trying it out on a platform like Commotion
OpenWRT.
https://github.com/confine-project/confine-dist/tree/master/packages/confine(as
packaged into Confine)
http://olsr.org/git/?p=dlep_app.git;a=tree (the current repo?)

In lieu of a new dlep-04 implementation, would you recommend I simply hold
entirely, or go ahead and try out the existing implementation for simple
evaluation purposes (even tho it is now out of sync with the draft)?  That
is, provided I don't attempt to develop tools that depend on the existing
implementation, then swapping out dlep-app for the new version shouldn't be
too difficult, right?

Thank you.
