[Interop-dev] RFC: add parameter link-type

[Henning Rogge]

hi,

any comments on the idea of a "link specific" (or interface specific)
boolean flag for topologies?

This would allow olsrd(2) to export its Hello-based (interface
specific) data and its TC-based (node specific) data both with the
same NetJSON object while still keeping a chance for a processing
script to discover what to expect in the data.
