Description Thilo 2009-05-15 07:16:25 UTC 
I like to see NM to support olsrd based networks. OLSR is used in Ad-hoc based networks like with OpenWRT boxes and wireless community networks like "Freifunk". Currently, if I want to connect my notebook to a Freifunk network, which uses OLSR have to shutdown NM and configure it all myself. 

This is sure not a feature for the masses, currently, but I would welcome a solution, because it could help make those networks more popular and easier to use. 

Here are some links:

I guess nobody works on it.

Unless nobody starts working on this, I'm closing as WONTFIX.
