I no longer maintain the babel mesh network at the campground. So far
as I know it still sort of exists.

The kernel gained some sort of optimization for switching routes in
the past couple years. And mesh networking at l2 became
a thing commercially, and boy, are people all over wireguard
everywhere, cloudflare has a rust implementation of that, abd
https://github.com/juanfont/headscale
seems to be popular. Of all the innovations that came out of the babel
effort, it was source specific routing that was my favorite.

As for the state of babel's l3 mesh networking today, had no idea.
thought I'd ask. I put out a call for thoughts towards maybe
doing a cerowrt II over here:
