Great stuff! I've been following the project and look forward to trialing it.

Reading your About page (not the FAQ), I feel it's a little misleading to say
"Commotion is a free, open-source communication tool". Rather, it's a platform
built atop (leveraging) a wide array of external, community-developed projects -
from B.A.T.M.A.N/OpenMesh, OpenWrt to OpenBTS and more.

Keep up the good work in 2014!
