I want to be clear that as far as I am aware OLPC has never "lost interest in
supporting its mesh", and we have continued to look for ways to achieve its
original goals. In the XO-1.5 we opted for a WLAN radio that didn't have
built-in mesh support because it used much less power (in al

I worked extensively with mesh networks and tested OLPC mesh network
under the auspices of the Brazilian government. I should clarify that,
most of the actual work was done by my then student, Ricardo Carrano,
who is now a professor in my department. I think most of the published
papers about the O

While I am not familiar with the Mesh Potato, I have spent some time trying to
figure out whether wireless mesh networking is really as hard as the OLPC
universe seems to find that it is.
I have come to believe that both wired and wireless mesh networks are really
doing pretty well out

David Rowe is closely involved in both the Mesh Potato and the East Timor OLPC
deployment. http://www.seaton-olpc-ug.org/?q=node/59
My understanding is that the currently deplo
Saw it at linux.conf.au, thought it was a bit expensive per node and
didn't take it further in OLPC. Liked the idea though.

Has anyone used the "Mesh Potato" devices from villagetelco.org to
provide mesh connectivity to a network of OLPCs?
Eben Moglen's "Freedom Box" mailing list has been exploring whether to
include mesh in their boxes. My experience with OLPC's mesh has led
me to question the risk/reward payoff of d
