Will not this just lead to a community based fork? And you will give binary only daemons then for BabelPro version? Will this be per node or per program costs? Or simply an installation package does not matter on how big network it is used? Or will be just a specification? Or will be specification free? It will be standardized?

Which is what the > IESG review suggested. But there is a way to achieve loop-free networks, why you do not document that? I understand this is a standard, so why not have all this in the standard? Or will this be a closed standard extension? How will this then influence interoperability?
