Hi,

One of the dependencies of babeld has moved away from GitHub, which
justifies a new release.  Babeld-1.14 is available by doing

  git clone -b babeld-1.14 https://github.com/jech/babeld

Other than fixing the build failures, the main news is the inclusion of
a unit test suite, due to Tomaz Mascarenhas.  The test suite tests against
the current behaviour of babeld, not against protocol correctness; it is
therefore useful to check whether we introduce any unexpected behaviour
changes, but not necessarily whether we behave correctly.

20 June 2026: babeld-1.14

  * Added a test suite, due to Tomaz Mascarenha.  The test suite does not
    necessarily test for correctness, it is designed to catch behaviour
    changes.
  * Allowed install filters to match on router-id.  Thanks to Gaspare Iengo.
  * Fixed the location of the rfc6234 submodule, which has moved away from
    GitHub.
