I feel kinda left out as I'm yet to encounter the OSPF issues I hear people talking about. Been running a star OSPF network for management purposes since late v3 with no issues I've seen other than accidentally duplicating router-id's from time to time with replacement equipment.
Unfortunately I'm no help in the MPLS department thou, might be worth pinging Andrew Thrift to see if he's got anything to say :-) Have a super mega nice day.
