The RFC conform implementation of OLSR does not work well. The 
Freifunk/Funkfeuer community networks (which are some of the largest deployed 
mesh networks) all use ETX because it does not work with hopcount.

OLSRv2 WILL contain integrated metric support because everyone in the MANET-WG 
agrees that it's necessary. We are discussing about if we integrate ETX as the 
easiest (and layer 1/2 independant) metric as an appendix/example into the 
main draft or not at the moment.
