+## Thank you for sending in a pull request, here's some tips to get started!
+
+(Please delete all these tips and replace with your text)
+
+- Before starting on some new big chunk of code, it it is optional but highly recommended to open an issue first
+  to say "hey, I think this idea X should be implemented and I'm starting work on it. My general plan is Y, any feedback
+  is appreciated." This will allow other devs to potentially save you time by not accidentially duplicating work etc...
+- Please do not check in files that don't have real changes
+- Please do not reformat lines that you didn't have to change the code on
+- We recommend using the [Visual Studio Code](https://platformio.org/install/ide?install=vscode) editor and the 'clang-format' extension,
+  because automatically follows our indentation rules and it's auto reformatting will not cause spurious changes to lines.
+- If your PR fixes a bug, mention "fixes #bugnum" somewhere in your pull request description.
+- If your other co-developers have comments on your PR please tweak as needed.

+Note: The GPS and LoRa stock antennas should be placed in a way, that the GPS antenna faces the sky and the LoRa antenna radiates 360 degrees horizontally. For better GPS reception you might want to [upgrade the GPS antenna](https://meshtastic.discourse.group/t/the-importance-of-gps-antennas-and-request-to-3d-case-documentation-people/1505) and to properly align the antennas you might want to upgrade to a LoRa antenna that can be adjusted to radiate into the right directions.

 Prebuilt binaries for the supported radios are available in our [releases](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-esp32/releases). Your initial installation has to happen over USB from your Mac, Windows or Linux PC. Once our software is installed, all future software updates happen over bluetooth from your phone.
 
+Be **very careful** to install the correct load for your board. In particular the popular 'T-BEAM' radio from TTGO is not called 'TTGO-Lora' (that is a different board). So don't install the 'TTGO-Lora' build on a TBEAM, it won't work correctly.

 # What is Meshtastic?
 
-Meshtastic™ is a project that lets you use
+Meshtastic® is a project that lets you use
 inexpensive (\$30 ish) GPS radios as an extensible, long battery life, secure, mesh GPS communicator. These radios are great for hiking, skiing, paragliding - essentially any hobby where you don't have reliable internet access. Each member of your private mesh can always see the location and distance of all other members and any text messages sent to your group chat.
 
 The radios automatically create a mesh to forward packets as needed, so everyone in the group can receive messages from even the furthest member. The radios will optionally work with your phone, but no phone is required.

 # Updates
 
 Note: Updates are happening almost daily, only major updates are listed below. For more details see our forum.
 
+- 09/14/2020 - 1.0.0 Now with over 1700 android users, over 2000 nodes and translated into 15 languages. This project will always be a "beta" experiment, but now quite usable. We are currently selecting 1.1 features in our discussion forum.
+- 06/24/2020 - 0.7.x Now with over 1000 android users, over 600 people using the radios and translated into 22 languages. Fairly stable and we are working through bugs to get to 1.0.
 - 06/04/2020 - 0.6.7 Beta releases of both the application and the device code are released. Features are fairly solid now with a sizable number of users.
 - 04/28/2020 - 0.6.0 [Python API](https://pypi.org/project/meshtastic/) released. Makes it easy to use meshtastic devices as "zero config / just works" mesh transport adapters for other projects.
 - 04/20/2020 - 0.4.3 Pretty solid now both for the android app and the device code. Many people have donated translations and code. Probably going to call it a beta soon.

 Most of these problems should be solved by the beta release (within three months):
 
 - We don't make these devices and they haven't been tested by UL or the FCC. If you use them you are experimenting and we can't promise they won't burn your house down ;-)
-- The encryption [implementation](software/crypto.md) has not been reviewed by an expert. (Are you an expert? Please help us)
+- The encryption implementation is good but see this list of [caveats](software/crypto.md#summary-of-strengthsweaknesses-of-our-current-implementation) to determine risks you might face.
 - A number of (straightforward) software work items have to be completed before battery life matches our measurements, currently battery life is about three days. Join us on chat if you want the spreadsheet of power measurements/calculations.
 - The Android API needs to be documented better
 - No one has written an iOS app yet. But some good souls [are talking about it](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-esp32/issues/14) ;-)

+
+## Board version 1.1
+
+variant name lora_relay_v1
+
+### Remaining TODOs
+
+- power hold for the ST7735
+- look at example sketch
+- turn on xmit boost
+
+## Recommendations for future boards
+
+@BigCorvus your board is **really** nice. Here's some ideas for the future:
+
+- make the SWDIO header more standard (the small ARM 2x5 micro footprint?) or at least througholes so it is easy to solder a header
+
+## How to program bootloader
+
+Download from here: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_nRF52_Bootloader/releases
+
+```
+nrfjprog -f nrf52 --eraseall
+Erasing user available code and UICR flash areas.
+Applying system reset.
+
+nrfjprog -f nrf52 --program feather_nrf52840_express_bootloader-0.3.2_s140_6.1.1.hex
+Parsing hex file.
+Reading flash area to program to guarantee it is erased.
+Checking that the area to write is not protected.
+Programming device.

+
+Then reboot the board, if all went well it now shows up as a mountable filesystem on your USB bus.

+
+## Data-rates
+
+### About
+
+Various data-rates are selectable when configuring a channel and are inversely proportional to the theoretical range of the devices.
+
+Considerations:
+
+* Spreading Factor - How much we "spread" our data over time.
+* * Each step up in Spreading Factor dobules the airtime to transmit.
+* * Each step up in Spreading Factor adds about 2.5db extra link budget.
+* Bandwidth - How big of a slice of the spectrum we use.
+* * Each doubling of the bandwidth is almost 3db less link budget.
+* * Bandwidths less than 31 may be unstable unless you have a high quality Crystal Ossilator.
+* Coding Rate - How much redundency we encode to resist noise.
+* * Increasing coding rate increases reliability while decrasing data-rate.
+* * 4/5 - 1.25x overhead
+* * 4/6 - 1.5x overhead
+* * 4/7 - 1.75x overhead
+* * 4/8 - 2x overhead
+
+
+### Pre-Defined
+
+We have four predefined channels. These are the most common settings and have been proven to work well:
+
+| Channel setting            | Alt Channel Name | Data-rate            | SF / Symbols | Coding Rate | Bandwidth | Link Budget |
+|:---------------------------|:-----------------|:---------------------|:-------------|:------------|:----------|:------------|
+| Short range (but fast)     | Short Fast       | 21.875 kbps          | 7 / 128      | 4/5         | 125       | 134dB       |
+| Medium range (but fast)    | Medium           | 5.469 kbps           | 7 / 128      | 4/5         | 500       | 140dB       |
+| Long range (but slower)    | Long Alt         | 0.275 kbps           | 9 / 512      | 4/8         | 31        | 153dB       |
+| Very long range (but slow) | Long Slow        | 0.183 kbps (default) | 12 / 4096    | 4/8         | 125       | 154dB       |
+
+The link budget used by these calculations assumes a transmit power of 17dBm and an antenna with 0dB gain. Adjust your link budget assumptions based on your actual devices.
+
+### Custom Settings
+
+You may want to select other channels for your usage. The other settings can be set by using the Python API.
+
+> meshtastic --setchan spread_factor 10 --setchan coding_rate 8 --setchan bandwidth 125
+
+After applying the settings, you will need to restart the device. After your device is restarted, it will generate a new crypto key and you will need to share the newly generated QR Code or URL to all your other devices.
+
+Some example settings:
+
+| Data-rate            | SF / Symbols | Coding Rate | Bandwidth | Link Budget | Note |
+|:---------------------|:-------------|:------------|:----------|:------------|:-----|
+| 37.50 kbps           | 6 / 64       | 4/5         | 500       | 129dB       | Fastest possible speed |
+| 3.125 kbps           | 8 / 256      | 4/5         | 125       | 143dB       | |
+| 1.953 kbps           | 8 / 256      | 4/8         | 125       | 143dB       | |
+| 1.343 kbps           | 11 / 2048    | 4/8         | 500       | 145dB       | |

+| 0.610 kbps           | 10 / 1024    | 4/8         | 125       | 149dB       | |

+| 0.336 kbps           | 11 / 2048    | 4/8         | 125       | 152dB       | |

+| 0.046 kbps           | 12 / 4096    | 4/8         | 31        | 160dB       | Twice the range and/or coverage of "Long Slow", high resliance to noise |
+
+The link budget used by these calculations assumes a transmit power of 17dBm and an antenna with 0dB gain. Adjust your link budget assumptions based on your actual devices.
+
+These channel settings may have not been tested. Use at your own discression. Share on https://meshtastic.discourse.group with your successes or failure.
+
+## Cryptography
+
+The preshared key used by the devices can be modified.
+
+* 0 = No crypto
+* 1 = Default channel key
+* 2 - 10 = The default channel key, except with 1 through 9 added to the last byte
+
+Use of cryptography can also be modified. To disable cryptography (maybe useful if you have HAM radio license):
+
+> meshtastic --setchan psk 0

+
+MESH RADIO PROTOCOL
+
+Old TODO notes on the mesh radio protocol, merge into real docs someday...
+
+for each named group we have a pre-shared key known by all group members and
+wrapped around the device. you can only be in one group at a time (FIXME?!) To
+join the group we read a qr code with the preshared key and ParamsCodeEnum. that
+gets sent via bluetooth to the device.  ParamsCodeEnum maps to a set of various
+radio params (regulatory region, center freq, SF, bandwidth, bitrate, power
+etc...) so all members of the mesh can have their radios set the same way.
+
+once in that group, we can talk between 254 node numbers.
+to get our node number (and announce our presence in the channel) we pick a
+random node number and broadcast as that node with WANT-NODENUM(my globally
+unique name).  If anyone on the channel has seen someone _else_ using that name
+within the last 24 hrs(?) they reply with DENY-NODENUM. Note: we might receive
+multiple denies.  Note: this allows others to speak up for some other node that
+might be saving battery right now. Any time we hear from another node (for any
+message type), we add that node number to the unpickable list.  To dramatically
+decrease the odds a node number we request is already used by someone. If no one
+denies within TBD seconds, we assume that we have that node number.  As long as
+we keep talking to folks at least once every 24 hrs, others should remember we
+have it.
+
+Once we have a node number we can broadcast POSITION-UPDATE(my globally unique
+name, lat, lon, alt, amt battery remaining).  All receivers will use this to a)
+update the mapping of who is at what node nums, b) the time of last rx, c)
+position.  If we haven't heard from that node in a while we reply to that node
+(only) with our current POSITION_UPDATE state - so that node (presumably just
+rejoined the network) can build a map of all participants.
+
+We will periodically broadcast POSITION-UPDATE as needed based on distance moved
+or a periodic minimum heartbeat.
+
+If user wants to send a text they can SEND_TEXT(dest user, short text message).
+Dest user is a node number, or 0xff for broadcast.

 ## Decoding stack traces
 
+### Option 1
+
 If you get a crash, you can decode the addresses from the `Backtrace:` line:
 
 1. Save the `Backtrace: 0x....` line to a file, e.g., `backtrace.txt`.
 2. Run `bin/exception_decoder.py backtrace.txt` (this uses symbols from the
    last `firmware.elf`, so you must be running the same binary that's still in
    your `.pio/build` directory).
+
+### Option 2
+
+You can run the exception decoder to monitor the serial output and decode backtraces in real time.
+
+1. From within PlatformIO, open a new terminal.
+2. At the the terminal, enter:
+   `pio device monitor --port /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART -f esp32_exception_decoder`
+   Replace the value of port with the location of your serial port.

+# Multiple channel support
+
+Version 1.2 of the software adds support for "multiple (simultaneous) channels".  The idea behind this feature is that a mesh can allow multiple users/groups to be share common mesh infrastructure.  Even including routing messages for others when no one except that subgroup of users has the encryption keys for their private channel.
+
+### What is the PRIMARY channel
+
+The way this works is that each node keeps a list of channels it knows about.  One of those channels (normally the first 1) is labelled as the "PRIMARY" channel.  The primary channel is the **only** channel that is used to set radio parameters.  i.e. this channel controls things like spread factor, coding rate, bandwidth etc... Indirectly this channel also is used to select the specific frequency that all members of this mesh are talking over.
+
+This channel may or may not have a PSK (encryption).  If you are providing mesh to 'the public' we recommend that you always leave this channel with its default psk.  The default PSK is technically encrypted (and random users sniffing the ether would have to use meshtastic to decode it), but the key is included in the github source code and you should assume any 'attacker' would have it.  But for a 'public' mesh you want this, because it allows anyone using meshtastic in your area to send packets through 'your' mesh.
+
+Note: Older meshtastic applications that don't yet understand multi-channel support will only show the user this channel.  
+
+### How to use SECONDARY channels
+
+Any channel you add after that PRIMARY channel is SECONDARY.  Secondary channels are used only for encyryption and (in the case of some special applications) security.  If you would like to have a private channel over a more public mesh, you probably want to create a SECONDARY channel.  When sharing that URL with your private group you will share the "Complete URL".  The complete URL includes your secondary channel (for encryption) and the primary channel (to provide radio/mesh access).
+
+Secondary channels **must** have a PSK (encryption).

+- Consider our existing solution 'alpha' and probably fairly secure against a not particularly aggressive adversary
+(but we can't yet make a more confident statement).
 
-## Notes on implementation
+## Summary of strengths/weaknesses of our current implementation
+
+Based on comments from reviewers (see below), here's some tips for usage of these radios.  So you can know the level of protection offered:
+
+* It is pretty likely that the AES256 security is implemented 'correctly' and an observer will not be able to decode your messages.
+* Warning: If an attacker is able to get one of the radios in their posession, they could either a) extract the channel key from that device or b) use that radio to listen to new communications.
+* Warning: If an attacker is able to get the "Channel QR code/URL" that you share with others - that attacker could then be able to read any messages sent on the channel (either tomorrow or in the past - if they kept a raw copy of those broadcast packets)
+
+Possible future areas of work (if there is enough interest - post in our [forum](https://meshtastic.discourse.group) if you want this):
+
+1. Optionally requiring users to provide a PIN to regain access to the mesh.  This could be based on: intentionally locking the device, time since last use, or any member could force all members to reauthenticate,
+2. Until a device reauthenticates, any other access via BLE or USB would be blocked (this would protect against attackers who are not prepared to write custom software to extract and reverse engineer meshtastic flash memory)
+3. Turning on read-back protection in the device fuse-bits (this would extend protection in #2 to block all but **extremely** advanced attacks involving chip disassembly)
+4. Time limiting keys used for message transmission and automatically cycling them on a schedule.  This would protect past messages from being decoded even if an attacker learns the current key.
+
+### Notes for reviewers
+
+If you are reviewing our implementation, this is a brief statement of our method.
 
 - We do all crypto at the SubPacket (payload) level only, so that all meshtastic nodes will route for others - even those channels which are encrypted with a different key.
 - Mostly based on reading [Wikipedia](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_cipher_mode_of_operation#Counter_(CTR)>) and using the modes the ESP32 provides support for in hardware.
 - We use AES256-CTR as a stream cypher (with zero padding on the last BLOCK) because it is well supported with hardware acceleration.
-
-Parameters for our CTR implementation:
-
 - Our AES key is 128 or 256 bits, shared as part of the 'Channel' specification.
-- Each SubPacket will be sent as a series of 16 byte BLOCKS.
-- The node number concatenated with the packet number is used as the NONCE. This counter will be stored in flash in the device and should essentially never repeat. If the user makes a new 'Channel' (i.e. picking a new random 256 bit key), the packet number will start at zero. The packet number is sent
-  in cleartext with each packet. The node number can be derived from the "from" field of each packet.
-- Each BLOCK for a packet has an incrementing COUNTER. COUNTER starts at zero for the first block of each packet.
-- The IV for each block is constructed by concatenating the NONCE as the upper 96 bits of the IV and the COUNTER as the bottom 32 bits. Note: since our packets are small counter will really never be higher than 32 (five bits).
+- The node number concatenated with the packet number is used as the NONCE. This nonce will be stored in flash in the device and should essentially never repeat. If the user makes a new 'Channel' (i.e. picking a new random 256 bit key), the packet number will start at zero. 
+- The packet number is sent in cleartext with each packet. The node number can be derived from the "from" field of each packet. (Cleartext is acceptable because it merely provides IV for each encryption run)
+- Each 16 byte BLOCK for a packet has an incrementing COUNTER. COUNTER starts at zero for the first block of each packet.
+- The IV for each block is constructed by concatenating the NONCE as the upper 96 bits of the IV and the COUNTER as the bottom 32 bits. Since our packets are small counter portion will really never be higher than 32 (five bits).
 
-```
-You can encrypt separate messages by dividing the nonce_counter buffer in two areas: the first one used for a per-message nonce, handled by yourself, and the second one updated by this function internally.
-For example, you might reserve the first 12 bytes for the per-message nonce, and the last 4 bytes for internal use. In that case, before calling this function on a new message you need to set the first 12 bytes of nonce_counter to your chosen nonce value, the last 4 to 0, and nc_off to 0 (which will cause stream_block to be ignored). That way, you can encrypt at most 2**96 messages of up to 2**32 blocks each with the same key.
+## Comments from reviewer #1
 
-The per-message nonce (or information sufficient to reconstruct it) needs to be communicated with the ciphertext and must be unique. The recommended way to ensure uniqueness is to use a message counter. An alternative is to generate random nonces, but this limits the number of messages that can be securely encrypted: for example, with 96-bit random nonces, you should not encrypt more than 2**32 messages with the same key.
+This reviewer is a cryptography professional, but would like to remain anonymous. We thank them for their comments ;-):
 
-Note that for both stategies, sizes are measured in blocks and that an AES block is 16 bytes.
-```
+I'm assuming that meshtastic is being used to hike in places where someone capable is trying to break it - like you were going to walk around DefCon using these. I spent about an hour reviewing the encryption, and have the following notes:
 
-## Remaining todo
+* The write-up isn't quite as clear as the code.
+* The code is using AES-CTR mode correctly to ensure confidentiality.
+* The comment for initNonce really covers the necessary information.
+* I think the bigger encryption question is "what does the encryption need to do"? As it stands, an attacker who has yet to capture any of the devices cannot reasonably capture text or location data. An attacker who captures any device in the channel/mesh can read everything going to that device, everything stored on that device, and any other communication within the channel that they captured in encrypted form. If that capability basically matches your expectations, it is suitable for whatever adventures this was intended for, then, based on information publicly available or widely disclosed, the encryption is good. If those properties are distressing (like, device history is deliberately limited and you don't want a device captured today to endanger the information sent over the channel yesterday) we could talk about ways to achieve that (most likely synchronizing time and replacing the key with its own SHA256 every X hours, and ensuring the old key is not retained unnecessarily).
+* Two other things to keep in mind are that AES-CTR does not itself provide authenticity (e.g. an attacker can flip bits in replaying data and scramble the resulting plaintext), and that the current scheme gives some hints about transmission in the size. So, if you worry about an adversary deliberately messing-up messages or knowing the length of a text message, it looks like those might be possible.
 
-- Have the app change the crypto key when the user generates a new channel
+I'm guessing that the network behaves somewhat like a store-and-forward network - or, at least, that the goal is to avoid establishing a two-way connection to transmit data. I'm afraid I haven't worked with mesh networks much, but remember studying them briefly in school about ten years ago.

Most of this document is in terms of the original BLE version, but this section describes the small changes when this API is exposed over a Streaming (non datagram) transport. The streaming version has the following changes:
+
+- We assume the stream is reliable (though the protocol will resynchronize if bytes are lost or corrupted). i.e. we do not include CRCs or error correction codes.
+- Packets always have a four byte header (described below) prefixed before each packet. This header provides framing characters and length.
+- The stream going towards the radio is only a series of ToRadio packets (with the extra 4 byte headers)
+- The stream going towards the PC is a stream of FromRadio packets (with the 4 byte headers), or if the receiver state machine does not see valid header bytes it can (optionally) print those bytes as the debug console from the radio. This allows the device to emit regular serial debugging messages (which can be understood by a terminal program) but also switch to a more structured set of protobufs once it sees that the PC client has sent a protobuf towards it.
+
+The 4 byte header is constructed to both provide framing and to not look line 'normal' 7 bit ASCII.
+
+- Byte 0: START1 (0x94)
+- Byte 1: START2 (0xc3)
+- Byte 2: MSB of protobuf length
+- Byte 3: LSB of protobuf length

 # Mesh broadcast algorithm
 
+## Current algorithm
+
+The routing protocol for Meshtastic is really quite simple (and suboptimal). It is heavily influenced by the mesh routing algorithm used in [Radiohead](https://www.airspayce.com/mikem/arduino/RadioHead/) (which was used in very early versions of this project). It has four conceptual layers.
+
+### A note about protocol buffers
+
+Because we want our devices to work across various vendors and implementations, we use [Protocol Buffers](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-protobufs) pervasively. For information on how the protocol buffers are used wrt API clients see [sw-design](sw-design.md), for purposes of this document you mostly only
+need to consider the MeshPacket and Subpacket message types.
+
+### Layer 1: Non reliable zero hop messaging
+
+This layer is conventional non-reliable lora packet transmission. The transmitted packet has the following representation on the ether:
+
+- A 32 bit LORA preamble (to allow receiving radios to synchronize clocks and start framing). We use a longer than minimum (8 bit) preamble to maximize the amount of time the LORA receivers can stay asleep, which dramatically lowers power consumption.
+
+After the preamble the 16 byte packet header is transmitted. This header is described directly by the PacketHeader class in the C++ source code. But indirectly it matches the first portion of the "MeshPacket" protobuf definition. But notably: this portion of the packet is sent directly as the following 16 bytes (rather than using the protobuf encoding). We do this to both save airtime and to allow receiving radio hardware the option of filtering packets before even waking the main CPU.
+
+- to (4 bytes): the unique NodeId of the destination (or 0xffffffff for NodeNum_BROADCAST)
+- from (4 bytes): the unique NodeId of the sender)
+- id (4 bytes): the unique (wrt the sending node only) packet ID number for this packet. We use a large (32 bit) packet ID to ensure there is enough unique state to protect any encrypted payload from attack.
+- flags (4 bytes): Only a few bits are are currently used - 3 bits for for the "HopLimit" (see below) and 1 bit for "WantAck"
+
+After the packet header the actual packet is placed onto the the wire. These bytes are merely the encrypted packed protobuf encoding of the SubPacket protobuf. A full description of our encryption is available in [crypto](crypto.md). It is worth noting that only this SubPacket is encrypted, headers are not. Which leaves open the option of eventually allowing nodes to route packets without knowing the keys used to encrypt.
+
+NodeIds are constructed from the bottom four bytes of the macaddr of the bluetooth address. Because the OUI is assigned by the IEEE and we currently only support a few CPU manufacturers, the upper byte is defacto guaranteed unique for each vendor. The bottom 3 bytes are guaranteed unique by that vendor.
+
+To prevent collisions all transmitters will listen before attempting to send. If they hear some other node transmitting, they will reattempt transmission in x milliseconds. This retransmission delay is random between FIXME and FIXME (these two numbers are currently hardwired, but really should be scaled based on expected packet transmission time at current channel settings).
+
+### Layer 2: Reliable zero hop messaging
+
+This layer adds reliable messaging between the node and its immediate neighbors (only).
+
+The default messaging provided by layer-1 is extended by setting the "want-ack" flag in the MeshPacket protobuf. If want-ack is set the following documentation from mesh.proto applies:
+
+"""This packet is being sent as a reliable message, we would prefer it to arrive
+at the destination. We would like to receive a ack packet in response.
+
+Broadcasts messages treat this flag specially: Since acks for broadcasts would
+rapidly flood the channel, the normal ack behavior is suppressed. Instead,
+the original sender listens to see if at least one node is rebroadcasting this
+packet (because naive flooding algorithm). If it hears that the odds (given
+typical LoRa topologies) the odds are very high that every node should
+eventually receive the message. So FloodingRouter.cpp generates an implicit
+ack which is delivered to the original sender. If after some time we don't
+hear anyone rebroadcast our packet, we will timeout and retransmit, using the
+regular resend logic."""
+
+If a transmitting node does not receive an ACK (or a NAK) packet within FIXME milliseconds, it will use layer-1 to attempt a retransmission of the sent packet. A reliable packet (at this 'zero hop' level) will be resent a maximum of three times. If no ack or nak has been received by then the local node will internally generate a nak (either for local consumption or use by higher layers of the protocol).
+
+### Layer 3: (Naive) flooding for multi-hop messaging
+
+Given our use-case for the initial release, most of our protocol is built around [flooding](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flooding_(computer_networking)>). The implementation is currently 'naive' - i.e. it doesn't try to optimize flooding other than abandoning retransmission once we've seen a nearby receiver has acked the packet. Therefore, for each source packet up to N retransmissions might occur (if there are N nodes in the mesh).
+
+Each node in the mesh, if it sees a packet on the ether with HopLimit set to a value other than zero, it will decrement that HopLimit and attempt retransmission on behalf of the original sending node.
+
+### Layer 4: DSR for multi-hop unicast messaging
+
+This layer is not yet fully implemented (and not yet used). But eventually (if we stay with our own transport rather than switching to QMesh or Reticulum)
+we will use conventional DSR for unicast messaging. Currently (even when not requiring 'broadcasts') we send any multi-hop unicasts as 'broadcasts' so that we can
+leverage our (functional) flooding implementation. This is suboptimal but it is a very rare use-case, because the odds are high that most nodes (given our small networks and 'hiking' use case) are within a very small number of hops. When any node witnesses an ack for a packet, it will realize that it can abandon its own
+broadcast attempt for that packet.
+
+## Misc notes on remaining tasks
+
+This section is currently poorly formatted, it is mostly a mere set of todo lists and notes for @geeksville during his initial development. After release 1.0 ideas for future optimization include:
+
+- Make flood-routing less naive (because we have GPS and radio signal strength as heuristics to avoid redundant retransmissions)
+- If nodes have been user marked as 'routers', preferentially do flooding via those nodes
+- Fully implement DSR to improve unicast efficiency (or switch to QMesh/Reticulum as these projects mature)

   build the most recent version of reality, and if some nodes are too far, then nodes closer in will eventually forward their changes to the distributed db.
 - construct non ambigious rules for who broadcasts to request db updates. ideally the algorithm should nicely realize node X can see most other nodes, so they should just listen to all those nodes and minimize the # of broadcasts. the distributed picture of nodes rssi could be useful here?
 - possibly view the BLE protocol to the radio the same way - just a process of reconverging the node/msgdb database.
