Hi!
I would like to submit to the community my proposal to provide VARAC with the functionality to build a mesh network. I see this as a way for a larger group of radio amateurs to connect into a networked group that can share data with each other, even if all users can't hear each other. Each node in the mesh must be able to relay any available data for another node and propagate routing information.
I bring this proposal because I see this functionality as an excellent tool for emergency communications - which can strengthen amateur radio worldwide.
As noted before this relay functionality is on the road map.
