works for me - I did say I'd like to change the routing protocol -
but I think the routing protocol can be changed asynchronously, and
will have to.

Fred,
If we are able to reduce the routing table size by an order of
magnitude, I don't see that we have a requirement to fundamentally
change the routing technology to support it. We may *want* to (and
yes, I would like to, for various reasons), but that is a
different assertion.
There is a fundamental difference between a one-time reduction in
the table and a fundamental dissipation of the forces that cause it
to bloat in the first place. Simply reducing the table as a one-
off only buys you linearly more time. Eliminating the drivers for
bloat buys you technology generations.
If we're going to put the world thru the pain of change, it seems
that we should do our best to ensure that it never, ever has to
happen again.
