And the last "free" version is hideous in the extreme.

It's also probably worth mentioning that Zebra is being developed
in an extremely active and proactive fashion, and the principal developers
are extremely open to contributed feedback and code.

Zebra's BGP seems pretty good and stable right now; the OSPF work has
apparently received a lot of attention recently, although I haven't tried it.

One of the nice things about zebra is the way that each routing protocol
is neatly compartmentalised into a separate daemon. This makes it simple and
easy to maintain individual protocols (or add new ones) without jeopardising
others.
