Thanks!

you'll need to pay cisco tax then.  Cisco opened up most of eigrp to the
ietf as an informational rfc, but didn't release anything related to eigrp
stub areas.  This means that the ietf release is not that useful if a
vendor wanted feature parity with cisco's implementation.  So far I'm not
aware of any vendors who have implemented it.  Maybe some will do so in 
future.
