Sorry, I actually read TEP 123 a bit too fast, and I missed the link
estimator components and the engines of ctp, in which I am interested.

But CTP only applies to trees, so I'll have to make a number of
changes to the interfaces so that they fit to what I need.
Is there ongoing or planned work about generic routing protocols ? Or
should I design this on my own and provide it at the end as a basis
for future work (the code will be GPL) ?

Regards,
Romain

In terms of the OSI terminology, collection and dissemination are
both transport protocols. But they of course have underlying routing
layers. As far as transport protocols go, the collection protocol is
very simple: it adds a single byte header for higher-level dispatch
(think port/protocol ID). Everything else is part of the routing layer.

Please look at the code carefully. In particular, CtpRoutingEngineP,
and le/LinkEstimatorP.
