The above list is explicitly hooked into Quagga.  What I don't know is whether 
Quagga is just a -wrapper- for the routing daemons, meaning that it could do 
hslsd as well.  It appears so.  And I don't know how suited HSLS would be to 
standard wire routing, and mixed wired/wireless.  I imagine ETX would be 
needed, and I'm sure path costs would be affected.

I'm trying to make IPV6 routing work on our gateway in a way that would be 
tightly-coupled with meshed clouds.  Hell, I'd be happy if IPV6 routing 
worked at all;  IPV6 is just taking too much time to do right, and that's a 
bad sign. 

I'm sure you're running the Kame stack natively which seems to be stable, but 
Linux users have to run the add-in USAGI stack, and I don't really trust it.  
The -native- Linux stack is unusable for secure systems, as no stateful 
filtering/connection tracking, nor updates to RFC's, etc.  Primitive.

I've begun studying the CUWin image, and you've got a disciplined install 
there.  Nice and clean.  I guess your actual kernel config file is in the 
sources?  Is there a reduction script to make a final image? (stripping out 
unneeded files)  Have you considered JFFS?
