About that, Oliver, is multicast-BGP production ready in IOS ans IOS XR.
Specifically ASR9k, 7606 Sup720, ME3600X and 3560/3750?

People have been running multicast on XR (ASR9K) and 7600 since "forever". I'd be more worried about ME3600X and 3560/3750, but at least on the 3560/3750 they're mature platforms so I'd imagine it works there as well.

Whould be nice too remove PIM from the core, just as Gert says limited use
= limited support.

How is multicast supposed to work without PIM?

What Gert was talking about was "Internet" multicast, ie multicast between ISPs. Watching NASA multicast streams for instance (I did this at my university in ~1995). Very few commercial ISPs support this.
