Quagga's IS-IS will get a lot better in the fall because funding has been 
provided to fix things important to IETF HOMENET working group 
requirements for IGP.

This will not fix things across the entire Quagga IS-IS code base, but 
things should be substantially improved. If you're interested in improving 
it further than that, do send some money to people capable of doing the 
work, and have them do it.

Contact me off-list if you want more information.
