The protocol have been successfully tested by members of Bergen Linux  
User Group (BLUG) in Norway, I do not remember the details, but they  
could state both test distance and ping response time. An  
implementation of the protocol for both the wiki and OSM in general  
would mean that OSM coverage will be virtually global, and no longer  
depending on broadband connections.
