Interesting. Does TRIP as a protocol meet your design requirements?

Specifically
a) do you think you will have anyone to talk to?
b) do you think that is a viable translation between metric minimization
  and LCR decisions which are presumably taken not only on (financial)
  cost minimization but also for QoS / policy reasons

I say that because TRIP is, as I'm sure you are aware, very similar
to BGP. We have coded BGP stuff before, and would probably code TRIP
stuff if we thought it would be useful. So far I've yet to be convinced
that several hundreds of thousands of lines of code later we'd not be
left with just several hundreds of thousands of lines of code. But it's
quite possible my imagination didn't extend sufficiently far beyond my
near requirements.
