Interesting link Juliusz, thank you.

This is the bane of the OLSR protocol. Most people not doing mesh-research 
just "use the RFC compatible OLSR" to compare it with anything else... and 
discover (as we all know) that hopcount metric does not work. I'm fighting for 
including a simple ETX implementation into the coming OLSRv2 RFC at the 
moment.
