Hi Rubens, Given the number of deployments we have in the field that are rock solid, I'd be happy to refer you to some of our customers so you can see for yourself whether they think Quagga is "worthwhile." ☺

The Euro-IX folks developed some patches (or maybe some major code revision), you might want to take a look into that, but I guess you probably knew that already... > Quagga is a very mature, stable RIP/OSPF/BGP platform which, given > multi-threading capabilities, will scale to hundreds of peers. I saw some nasty bugs over the years with Quagga, and noticed the enormous effort required to maintain the old codebase; enough to make me always prefer something else. Every now and then a codebase seems to be more trouble maintaning than scrapping it altogether on the open-source world, and I'm pretty convinced that this time has come to Quagga. If you feel that codebase is worthwhile, I suggest investing a large amount of Imagestream revenues on restructuring it. I'll be glad to have Quagga as an option, again.
