Hi Bastian, Did you have a chance to try the iptables + netfilter_bridge hook (I believe via the iptables physdev module?) Antonio suggested yet?
It sounds like a good idea to me and since no one seems to have tried it with batman-adv yet I'm curious whether it works well in practice. Whether you could enhance the user experience in an open, batman-adv based community mesh network by having an IP instead of connection based sharing of available bandwidth.
