Wow.  Someone other than me is using Multicast still.  Do you know if
there's any intent to work further on mrouted?  We've been bumping into
some problem at work because it doesn't handle dynamic configurations well
-- adding/removing interfaces and changing IP addresses both cause mrouted
to be unhappy.  I've been hoping to find time at work to work on this, but
it hasn't happened yet.
