Dear all,

I've just put babel-0.6 in

    http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/files/babel-0.6.tar.gz
    http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/files/babel-0.6.tar.gz.asc

For more information about the Babel routing daemon, please see

This version implements resending of lost requests; reconvergence
after moving into an area with no connectivity should now take 250 ms
per hop on average (after the link quality is estimated).  It also
fixes a rather nasty crash that would only happen on week-ends, with
a full moon, and only on diskless machines that don't have a debugger
and don't generate core dumps.

Enjoy,

                                        Juliusz
