I've been thinking about other information that could be conveyed in communities. For instance, bandwidth, delay and packet loss. If each router along the way modifies such a community (should probably be an extended one) then a much richer set of information would be available to multihomers to aid in route selection.

And generate a route flap every time a link gets used more or less? That would be suboptimal to say the least (the word `countereffective' seems more applicable to me). -- Niels.
