Hello 
  Is that a combination of BATMAN and OLSR-NG?  this text in spanish expose 
differences between BATMAN and OLSR-NG is from this document of The Group o fo 
user of Free Software from Rosario Argentina 
(http://www.lugro-mesh.org.ar/doc/LUGRo-Mesh%20-%20texto%20charla%208vas%20JRSL.pdf):

Algunas diferencias entre B.A.T.M.A.N. y OLSR-NG
RFC3626 -------> 2003
OLSR.org ------> 2004
B.A.T.M.A.N. -------> 2006
OLSR-NG (OLSR-Next Generation) -------> 2007
B.A.T.M.A.N. desde su concepción está pensado para redes comunitarias, sus 
desarrolladores están
involucrados en proyectos de éste tipo y el código fuente de B.A.T.M.A.N. es 
liberado bajo la
licencia GPL.
(...............)
OLSR es un protocolo de ruteo muy utilizado para la creación de redes mesh. Al 
igual que
B.A.T.M.A.N., ambos son proactivos y utlizan tablas para las desiciones de 
ruteo.
La diferencia fundamental entre ambos es que B.A.T.M.A.N. no calcula las rutas 
completas entre un
nodo origen y un nodo destino, sino que selecciona un nodo de un salto de 
distancia al cuál utilizar
como gw hacia el nodo destino.
En OLSR-NG el calcular en forma constante cada ruta posible, entre el nodo 
origen y el nodo
destino, trae aparejado un gran uso de CPU y memoria, y en consecuencia 
problemas de
escalabilidad al aumentar la cantidad de nodos en la red. Al mantener las 
tablas con las rutas
completas entre los nodos, hace que ante la mínima falla en la sincronización 
entre los nodos
ocurran los loops. Y éstos suceden en mayor cantidad, a medida que la red 
aumenta en su número
de nodos participantes.

Nevertheless i think that Netsukuku has other political/philosophical
 conceptions that aren't exposed in the others existing projects, i think that 
the objetives aren't the same. In first place when i read the documentation of 
netsukuku i understand that were looking for an autonomous net with differents 
protocols (wich give it more security) where the connection to de www was not 
the principal objective.

In the other hand i see in other projects that the principal aim is the digital 
inclusion, wich is good if it is accompanied with education like any othe 
politic of inclusion, new tools for people has to be presented to the receiver 
in a way that they could made a good use of them knowing the risks also.

I'm interested in this subjects and i think there are lot of people like me 
that we are discovering this "world". It would be grate to find a project that 
maintain emancipation principles of building the down layers and services in an 
autonomous and self managed way, and that can join the efforts of all the 
people interesting in fighting this war against the destruction of the planet 
Earth by the unscrupulous in the power. some would say: what t f! but i think 
that if people who join this list are searching for something different from 
the existing stuff

cheers
