[B.A.T.M.A.N.] git changes break OpenWRT package

[Gus Wirth]

It seems that changes made to the git sources have broken OpenWRT
batman-adv package. The OpenWRT package points to:

http://git.open-mesh.org/snapshots

for kernel code. But that directory has been cleaned out. There also
doesn't appear to be any backup packages at:

http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources

Is there any way to put the old snapshots back?

Or since the kernel module can be built from source checked out from
subversion, I guess the batman-adv package can be redone to only use the
subversion code and not any maintenance code. Has anyone done this yet?
I can't tell who created the original package so I suspect it is someone
here.

Wow - you are quick!
We are currently reworking the OpenWRT source package to offer more 
functionality (e.g. downloading from different git branches), hence a few 
things changed. I'm still testing the latest changes to make sure everything 
works. I'll upload the new stuff in a couple of hours. If you can't wait that 
long here is the new URL:
http://git.open-mesh.org/snapshot/$git_hash/$any_name_you_want

My apologies. I reread the Makefile for the batman-adv package and saw
your name there as the maintainer. So now I know :)

Thanks. I can wait a while until things settle down. I'll be happy to do
some testing when it's ready.

Any feedback is welcome.  ;)
