+**Sprint Dates: Fri 29 April 2011 - Sun 1 May 2011**
+
+## Goals
+
+- Revisit sprint 1
+  - Gather metrics to determine efficiency of protocols.
+    - Sizes of routing protocols' packets.
+    - Number of packets per second/minute/hour transmitted by each
+      protocol.
+    - Average amount of traffic during normal operation.
+  - Determine how many nodes can participate in a mesh before
+    responsiveness or bandwidth begin to degrade.
+
+## Stuff To Bring
+
+- anything that can run babel
+  - laptops/netbooks
+  - desktops with wireless cards
+  - openwrt compatible routers (if you're feeling lucky/adventurous)
+
+## Homework
+
+- install babeld on every machine you plan to bring to the sprint
+- \[optional\] install a kernel with support for batman-adv on the same
+  machines (it's built into the kernel after version 2.6.38+ ) or build
+  the modules separate from the kernel
+- readup on route and ip/ifconfig commands in linux
+- readup on ipv6
+
+## Experiments
+
+- network density
+  - hypothesis: if the nodes are positioned very densely, then the
+    network quality will degrade.
+  - test: position nodes at increasing densities starting with evenly
+    distributed nodes at their maximum effective range, and run tests to
+    measure network quality at each level of density.
