Well, I can see the point in retaining wildcard requests for speeding up convergence when a new node joins a network. Don't recall expressing a preference on this matter before, but on the other hand it's quite likely that Juliusz remembers that better than me... ;) However, if this (helping new nodes) is the only use case, to me the simplest seems to be option (1), i.e., a wildcard request translates to "give me all routes you have, regardless of extensions". That's dead simple to implement, and I'm not convinced that "mixed networks" (where nodes speak different extensions) are going to be common enough to warrant the complexity of what is essentially an optimisation for that one case (i.e., option (3)). So I prefer (1), but can live with (3). -Toke _______________________________________________ Babel-users mailing list Babel-users@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/babel-users
