Homenet is chartered to produce a suite of specifications that will allow for 
autonomous unmanaged routing in a home network.   The set of vendor 
organizations that support TRILL is, AFAIK, completely disjoint from the set of 
vendor organizations that sell routers for the home.   I would be delighted if 
we could get home routers from some of the rather excellent vendor 
organizations in the first set, but that is not the reality at the moment, and 
I see no reason to expect that to change.

Furthermore, we really need for this to be supported by open source router 
software, and AFAIK TRILL is not supported on that software, although certainly 
in principle it could be, and David Lamparter’s open source IS-IS 
implementation for OpenWRT might even be able to be turned to that purpose if 
someone were interested.
