Please don't reply to a random posts to start a new topic. And don't write to 
the Linux networking mailing list and the Linux networking maintainer David S. 
Miller when you actually want to ask the "b.a.t.m.a.n mailing list".

And yes, you will see patches going over this list the whole time. Either 
because somebody wants to get stuff integrated into some B.A.T.M.A.N. related 
project or because the patches were sent to our Linux networking god David S. 
Miller.

So nothing unusal happened.

Ehrm, ehrm, ehrm, ehrm, oehm, aehm.... I will not guarantee anything. It is 
safe to use this stuff until anyone proofed it otherwise. But we have some 
fixes in the maint branch which weren't released yet in form of 2012.3.1 or 
2012.4.0. But they are included in the stable releases of Linux 3.6.x

Now you baffled me completely. Linux 3.6.3 is the stable release which 
includes batman-adv 2012.3.0 + stable fixes. And you want to replace it with 
2012.3.0 without these stable fixes. Can you give me a reason why this sounded 
to you like a good idea? Even without these stable fixes... why would you 
replace the in-kernel module with the out-of-tree module of the same version?

Kind regards,
	Sven
