So Quagga community, where do we go from here? What's the first order of business? More 'admin' stuff, or can we start digging in? No matter really, but I think one of the first tasks should be to release a version of 'Quagga' which contains all of the patches Paul has been gathering. This release will set the gears in motion and establish the Quagga fork. There is nothing worse then a project without released code .... -- -- James R. Leu

Paul, if you can go through the code and make sure it says "Quagga" in all of the appropriate places (remember, K. didn't want us to use the Zebra name so, we should remove all references not required by GPL) and roll a tarball, I think that would make a good start. --- John Fraizer | High-Security Datacenter Services | President | Dedicated circuits 64k - 155M OC3 | EnterZone, Inc | Virtual, Dedicated, Colocation | http://www.enterzone.net/ | Network Consulting Services |
Paul, you need to set up Mailman to set the reply-to field. -- -- --- John Fraizer | High-Security Datacenter Services | President | Dedicated circuits 64k - 155M OC3 | EnterZone, Inc | Virtual, Dedicated, Colocation | http://www.enterzone.net/ | Network Consulting Services |

Zebra is everywhere, in the API for daemons, defines, includes, etc. etc. Just changing every occurance will break things like the IS-IS daemon. It's of course possible to duplicate ZEBRA_VARIABLE_XX with QUAGGA_VARIABLE_XX but this increases complexity and leads to errors when they get out of sync. It could be handled by a "compatibility" layer that makes all ZEBRAxxxx deprecated and(Continue reading)

This message is intended to start a thread that can reach a consensus regarding the short-term and long-term goals of the guagga project. SHORT-TERM GOALS 1. INITIAL RELEASE Perhaps the most important short-term goal is to field a "released" version based on zebra-pj. This should have the following attributes: a. Minimum changes from zebra-pj. Perhaps only the name of the executable and whatever else is absolutely necessary. Rationale - widest possible ussage and feedback base. b. Should work with existing zebra file structure and configuration files without changes. Rationale - widest possible usage and feedback base. c. Third party daemons like IS-IS should not require any changes. Rationale - widest possible usage and feedback base. d. Should be available as tarball, RPM, and deb. Rationale - easier to install than present CVS. e. Should have gone through a PRE or RC cycle first which implies(Continue reading)

If we take K's request quite literally, the minimum that we need to do is change the name of the "zebra" daemon and zebra.conf file, change the banner (not sure how we do this and also meet GPL requirements) and update the documentation to refer to Quagga vs Zebra.

Nope, it isn't. Isisd is written mostly by Sampo Saaristo and he don't have time for it at the moment. It has still a lot of bugs in core, doesn't have any redistribution code etc. -- -- Hasso Tepper Elion Enterprises Ltd. WAN administrator
