Hi Brian,

The RR mechanism for anycast already requires the ability to use

on lifting that restriction, I like the idea of keeping changes
out of TCP.
I just spotted the following: the RR mechanism sends HoT to the anycast
address. How does that work? It might go to a completely different
server.
There is an assumption that there won't be a routing change on
the anycast address between the first TCP SYN and the HoT. Given
the other problems a routing change would have, I feel it is a
reasonable trade-off.
