1. Where can I get the current D1.0 802.11s draft PDF ?<br><br>2. If there is no current draft PDF available, my questions are in particular:<br><br>(a) I read that the 802.11s draft is designed for only up to 32 nodes.<br>
Is that correct ? In urban/academic surroundings there will be need for<br>*much* more nodes. Are there any ideas how this design problem will be<br>solved ?<br><br>(b) In the public 802.11s draft details I could not find anything about
<br>gateway descriptions.<br>How will the mesh-network know what node is a gateway-node ?<br>How will the mesh-network know what node is the fastest gateway and<br>what node is the most reliable gateway ?<br><br>(c) Are there any patents on
802.11s ?<br><br>(d) How settled is the current D1.0 802.11s draft ?<br>(e) Which parts are still "in flow", which parts are definite ?<br><br><br>Andi<br>_______________________________________________<br>Devel mailing list
