qaul.net
========

**qaul.net** is an ad-hoc wireless mesh-network suite that harnesses the
power of everyday devices such as computers and smartphones to create a
**Democratic**, **Non-Centralized**, **Mesh Network** on which users can
share files, have voice chats and send each other messages, however the
power of qaul.net allows an endless feature set as anyone can run any
LAN-based application over the network. qaul.net removes the dependence
on the centralized services such as the Internet and cellular networks
and creates a network that anyone can be part of and share freely with
no censorship what so ever.

qaul.net has the following features:

* File sharing (both private and public)
* Voice calling
* Text messaging (both private and public)
* Sharing your Internet connection (via a given interface) to the whole mesh
* Custom network settings (to setup your own **personal** mesh)
* Viewing of the whole mesh as a diagram
* Ability to run `olsr` (the mesh routing procotol) on any interface (wifi, ethernet)
* And because this is a mesh-**network** you can run any service you want on your node and it will be available on the network (Web server, Mail server, SSH server, FTP server etc.)
