Don - see http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1246.txt 1246 Experience with the OSPF Protocol. J. Moy. July 1991. (Format: TXT=70441, PS=141924, PDF=84633 bytes) (Also RFC1247, RFC1245) (Status: INFORMATIONAL)
When we advance a routing protocol to Proposed Standard, for reasons related to ancient IESG history related to routing, we generally require a test report that shows interoperable implementations of the standard in question. As you can imagine, there was an NDA around the various events RFC 1246 reports - you won't find comments on the fact that Cisco's initial implementation of OSPF was a demon's delight, but you will find comments on who tested, and what the outcome of the testing was after we (yes, I was there, while working at ACC) all fixed our bugs. It would be very helpful if you could, with the implementors in question, filed a report on the testing.
