Hi Nick, Thanks for the great feedback! We love to see this kind of input from the community. It's incredibly helpful. Glendale has undergone a huge number of changes and some of them, such as the CLI, are revolutionary as opposed to evolutionary. The goal is to have Glendale's new features be useful as opposed to just different. External feedback helps to keep us honest to that goal.

I've talked with An-Cheng about ? help. I think we agreed that he would set it up that ? would bind to help by default, but that it could be turned on or off on a per user basis. I need to follow up with him on that. Space completion has been submitted as bug 2771. > Can we use the > clear ip ospf to reset the ospf process built into Quagga in the shell? > - show ospf4 database self-originate is one of the best commands to > troubleshoot ospf with, can we please work towards adding it? I will open bugs on these and let you know what the bug numbers are. Thanks again!
