depending on what your primary target is supposed to do, or combinations

I don't have a need for olsr, so this question is just for the sake of others..

a mayor != major.
www.dict.org or ask your dict client, if in doubt.

Nowadays we touch the target. I'll adjust the docs accordingly ASAP.

ditto.
