(sigh, again) I did not distort anything. The suggestion that OLPC should remove the mesh is there. And this suggestion is hardly based on a first hand experience or in a technical analysis. People who never put three XOs together keep repeating this based on a quite vague idea that the tickets are many. (1) Could you please give me numbers to support this. And would this be fair? Try to remember that almost everything relies on the network. And please, Try to respond when ad-hoc is an alternative to mesh. Maybe I change my mind. Try to say why you think the mesh "does not work", based on facts. You don't need access to the code to do that. If you want to contribute to the development of the network, there is a lot you can do: test it, report it, analyse traffic captures. Your complaining is not helping anything. Another idea for those who want to help in the wireless front. Instead of complaining, contribute to the driver. It is open source. <div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> We don't throw away every important aspect of the project, we simply disable/ignore features as long as they don't work as expected. A "feature" which is an obstacle without visible benefits to users/developers has no inherent value. </blockquote><div> Are you serious? Are you saying that the mesh network  does not bring benefits? And are you saying that we should drop anything that does not work as expected? What is the obstacle, you mention? I really want to be presented to the perfect piece of software you want to save from fire. </div></div>
