open 80211s on XO 1.5

[Hilton Garcia Fernandes]

Hi, Sameer ! 

Are you sure open802.11s can be made to support to the Marvell chipsets ?

In any case, open802.11s implementation is certainly incompatible with the 
standard OLPC 802.11s driver, since they implemented different versions of 
the draft.

It is interesting to read that "Mesh networking is exceptionally difficult to 
use properly on an XO-1, and I'm not aware of any real-world installations of 
it.", as Ed told us.

All the best,
hilton
