I'm starting to look at the latency tolerance components of the protocol, once it supports sneakernet as a transport, it will be perfect.

edit: nvmd, looks like it is set at a global level not a link level

Sneakernet transport has a wide array of definitions, but my favorite part about NomadNet and Sideband is the fact you can print paper QR code messages and have a recipient or LXMF propagation node scan them and have your message delivered. I have a $13 thermal printer I was able to get messages printed with.
