Joe Macker happens to have freely distributable source code. Folks
interested in MDP and IMM (not INN) might want to goto this URL:
http://tonnant.itd.nrl.navy.mil/ipresearch/rm.html
Folks seriously working on reliable multicast protocol design
should look into the IRTF Reliable Multicast Research Group...
