This is very strange approach that I, frankly met nowhere else in ham world but here.
I participated in number of noncommercial and hobby projects and the one of the main
goals I always had was to document things to make it easier for people to learn, get
involved and contribute.
IMHO there is more than enough documentation around for people to learn, get involved and
contribute.
It is only for the types that want to know the reason for each and every bit that there
may be a lack of documentation.
It is my opinion that when they really need the detailed specification they claim is not
available, they should write
that themselves asking for input here on the mailinglist. But they rather prefer
slashing everything that is
there and claiming that it is all inferior.
There really is not much to it, it is simply a meshed IPIP tunnel network with a gateway
to the outside internet,
and everyone with basic understanding of routing should be able to comprehend how it
works.
The software it is running on has changed over time so directions on how to get it working
have to evolve
as well. I have posted simple scripts for Linux on this list and I don't see what is
wrong with them.
Of course they are not "specification and documentation" but hey, there are only
some 10 shell commands to it.
