While we're at it, I believe there are a number of ways to improve ahcpd, most notably: - allow to configure everything from the configuration file, the way it is now done with babeld; - if the server's own addresses intersect with the distributed prefixes, don't attribute them to someone else. It's not that easy to implement (maybe also through netlink? Does it allow to monitor addresses being added/deleted?); - read a configuration file by default without having to specify a "-c" option, the way it is done with babeld. It looks like something to keep for the upcoming Babel hackathon, isn't it? (and sorry for hijacking the discussion)
