Now that work is under way to incorporate B.A.T.M.A.N (batman-adv) into
the mainline Linux kernel, hopefully 2.6.33, will older kernels be
abandoned?

I have some embedded systems that are on 2.6.30.10 and running fine, and
I really don't want to have to put in a new kernel and recertify the
software just to get some improvements to B.A.T.M.A.N.

Is there any consideration to doing something similar to compat-wireless
but for B.A.T.M.A.N  (batman-adv) instead?
