[B.A.T.M.A.N.] pull request: batman-adv 2012-11-21

[Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>]

Hello David,

here is again our changeset intended for net-next/linux-3.8.
Since the last pull request I removed the patch we were discussing about (the
one exporting the batman-adv compatibility version) as we intend to do not
provide the user the feeling of being "incompatible everyday".

As we discussed some time ago, we are doing what we can to speed our
stabilisation process up and we are not going to break compatibility anymore
before we ultimate such process.

However, I see that every now and then you have the feeling we are not really
doing so. In that case, please, point out what you think is not adequate so that
we can quickly fix it.

Again: we want to stabilise the protocol/messages format and any help/suggestion
from you or the other maintainers is always well accepted (other than being
"rude" only or not answering at all. When you do so, then we have to spend the
entire day in trying to decrypt what was wrong and what we should do to address
the problem, limiting our fun and productivity).


Please pull or let me know if there is any other problem in this batch.


Thank you very much,
		Antonio
