Worth noting, the older ones work as before. ;)

Oh...
Quagga has lasting power beyond any given corporate. They come and go,
they should never be relied on too much. Things wax and wane, and will
wax again. It's a long game.
FWIW, though I'd want you to keep investing in Quagga, particularly in
supporting development, you also have other options for
operator-orientated and/or vendor-neutral routing software.
BIRD and OpenBGPd/OpenOSPFd in particular.
BIRD, if I understand correctly, is sustained by an operator owned body.
OpenBGPd/OpenOSPFd are also sustained via support gathered from a wide,
user support base. Both are good projects to support (be nice if there
was a portable OpenBGPd, an OpenOpenBGPd project I guess). I've
benchmarked BIRD myself, and it's fast. I gather OpenBGPd is too, though
I havn't tried it much myself.
Things are much better today for operators, with regard to routing
stacks, than 13+ years ago.
