neat. do you have practical applications in mind, or is this solely focused on infrastructure?

Yeah, in general DTN has a lot of application areas (military, neural/sensors network, space research, etc), but porting it to Maemo, in telecommunication wireless mobile world, has as goal to reduce the costs of implementation of this technology from big research centers to costumer level.

A simple application in Maemo world could be, for example, "data-mule": Bytewalla project experiment (site here: http://www.tslab.ssvl.kth.se/csd/projects/092106/), performaced on android mobile phones, is based in this idea.

In presentation of project we can read:

This project aims at connecting african rural villages using Android phones with delay-tolerant networking. The idea is that people carrying their Android mobile phones and traveling from villages to cities will carry data with them. When they are in the village, they will download data from a WiFi access point (in a telecentre with no internet connectivity, for example). Once they reach the city, they will connect to another WiFi access point and upload the data. This "data-mule" operation will be transparent to the user, which will be able to use his mobile phone as usual. Emails downloaded at the village will finally be delivered in the city.
The idea of my research group @ University of Bologna (Italy) is to valorize the presence of 3G interface in N900 device and to create new scenarios of development. More information here: http://cnrl.deis.unibo.it/.
