Comment:

 First, I need to know more about this anycast address.

 I read nm-device-802-11-mesh-olpc.c from NetworkManager and discovered the
 following things. Please tell me if I'm wrong.

 It defines 2 anycast addresses: school_mpp_anycast and xo_mpp_anycast. I
 guess that's the first one we are looking for, right?

 The default address for school_mpp_anycast is c0:27:c0:27:c0:00. It can be
 overridden with this file: SYSCONFDIR "/NetworkManager/anycast.conf". I
 don't have it on my XO's, is it deployement specfic?

 Could I use the same algorithm to find the anycast address in the
 presence-service?
