It isn't quite the individuals who are having problems maintaining a single RIB with IGP routes, it looks like the software is having trouble keeping its sanity. Seeing that it took ~ 12 months to track down some iBGP withdrawl bugs and a single fence post error in an AS path sanity check took down a significant portion of the internet, I suggest perhaps one must first put ones own house in order before going out and throwing stones at others.
