v5 v6 6 6 Now that the end of the year is close, it is time to lean back for a moment and review the events & achievements happening throughout the past year. 7 7 8 We published 2 bugfix releases of our batmand [layer 3] branch ([wiki:2009-01-25-batman-0-3-1-release batmand 0.3.1] and [wiki:2009-06-13-batman-0-3-2-release batmand 0.3.2]) as well as a major milestone of our batman-adv [layer 2] kernel module ([wiki:2009-11-08-batman-adv-0-2-release batman-adv 0.2]). Deprecated branches (batman d layer 2and vis-advanced) were removed from the repository because their functionality was replaced by the kernel module. The newly created tool 'batctl' (former battools) matured enough to be added to the standard release.8 We published 2 bugfix releases of our batmand [layer 3] branch ([wiki:2009-01-25-batman-0-3-1-release batmand 0.3.1] and [wiki:2009-06-13-batman-0-3-2-release batmand 0.3.2]) as well as a major milestone of our batman-adv [layer 2] kernel module ([wiki:2009-11-08-batman-adv-0-2-release batman-adv 0.2]).

Especially in the first months of 2009 we spent quite some time to ease the transition and improve the setup to serve better the growing needs of the project. During the late summer [http://git.open-mesh.org git.open-mesh.org] was born which plays a crucial role in our efforts to merge the batman-adv kernel code into the linux kernel. The git repository got up to speed in autumn and the first set of patches was accepted [http://www.kroah.com/log/linux/staging-status-12-2009.html during the 2.6.33 merge window].
