Dear all

Would you like to chat without Internet connectivity? What about doing it by using NDN over wi-fi direct?

I would like to invite you to use Oi! (a short messaging application) on top of NDN-OPP (NDN Android with new face to operate over wi-fi direct).

I’m very receptive to any comment, good or bad...

Here is a small guideline to help you start.

Installation:
1. You have to install NDN-OPP and Oi! from Google Play in more than one device (links below)

NDN-OPP:
2. Initiate NDN-OPP in all the devices
3. In NDN-OPP you need to start the NFD daemon
4. You’ll see that NDN-OPP will start to find the other local devices, where you also installed NDN-OPP
5. One of the devices will be selected as Wi-Fi direct group owner. In that device the tag “Join/Form Group” will appear as Bold. You should clic on that in order to allow a Wi-Fi direct group to be formed.

Oi!:
6. Initiate Oi! in all devices
7. Configure Oi! with the name of the device owner and his/her telephone number.
8. You can start a Oi! chat by selecting a person from your contact list.

Alert1: You don't need to activate Wi-Fi groups (step 5) in order to use Oi!, but it may provide better experience in the case of sending large messages.
Alert2: The phone number used to identify the user (step 7) must be the same as the one that the user shared.
