We've been keeping an eye on the Serval Project for a while.  They
have a slightly different but still compatible goal in mind
(telephony, as opposed to a general purpose data network).  One of the
ways we differ is that we are not designing custom hardware for
Byzantium, preferring instead to make maximal use of commodity
hardware already extant (namely, laptops, netbooks, and wi-fi enabled
mobile devices).  We have plans underway for providing telephony
across a Byzantium mesh, plus it would be possible to configure
Byzantium to bridge to a Serval mesh (we've already done this with a
BATMAN-advanced mesh under test conditions).
