Is that still true? Would say so. There are no known bugs, but it lacks some features; the most obvious one being that it only speaks IPv6 (because Bird lacks dual-stack support). Feel free to take it for a spin and report any bugs you find, though! :) > BTW: Does babel have some authentication? Nope. The IETF working group has only just been formed a couple of months ago, and so there's not a consensus on what form any security features of Babel would take. Once we get around to discussing the security features I'll start thinking about implementing it, but until then, no auth... -Toke
