DRAFT: Batman-adv 2020.3 released

Aug 25th, 2020. Today the B.A.T.M.A.N. team publishes the August 2020 update to batman-adv, batctl and alfred! An additional hop penalty can now be configured on a per interface basis. Also several bugfixes and code cleanups are included in this version.

As the kernel module always depends on the Linux kernel it is compiled against, it does not make sense to provide binaries on our website. As usual, you will find the signed tarballs in our download section:
