[orbit-user] Looking at the source code for original application

[UJJWAL JAIN]

Sir,
  We want to implement a protocol on Adhoc Network.So here we are in
ambivalent situation whether to incorporate that protocol into the kernel or
just create the executables and put it into the /bin and create a wrapper
application around it.Or the other way around ,we just create the protocol
as application and use it as descibed in the tutorial and we only have to
incorporate into kernel only the  changes we make in the existing
implementation of the Network Layers in Kernel
