Well I have worked on number of products from different vendors supporting
VRRP and I have worked with HSRP also. I feel that both have strengths and
weaknesses however I think VRRP and its variations are slightly more mature
as it allows some fancy port tracking features. I might be wrong but I don't
HSRP has such features. Please if someone has more detailed info on the
subject...please enlighten us.

I think you meant to write 'Not yet on the routers'. I'm sure
some of the boxes you've bought recently (such as the CSS /
ArrowPoint switches) does support VRRP.

Actually, since HSRP is documented in RFC2281, other companies
could have implemented it if they wanted to. I guess they don't
feel VRRP lacking in functionality, since they haven't.
