Comment:

 Took 2 XOs (Joe-E and X56) home (supposedely radio-quiet environment), ran
 Chat in the simple mesh network - experienced no laptop going in/out of
 the chat. After a while X56 dropped from the network completely, couldn't
 recognize the Joe-E laptop, required several reboots to make it connected
 again. I'm attaching log files collected from both laptops.

 Preliminary conclusion: in the radio-quiet environment,  simple mesh
 networking should be stable enough for expected deployments.

 Got a 2.4 GHz spectrum analyzer, will measure "radio-intensity" at 1CC and
 at home.
