I thought Zebra/Quagga just implemented the actual routing daemons/processes, not any route optimization other then optimization that can be had by manual intervention; nothing on the lines of Route Science or the Cisco OER.

Not sure I'd trust something that was truly open source to handle something so important. But I guess I trust nagios for my service availability so shame on me ;-)

Hello!

Does anybody happen to know of any open source project working on a BGP route optimizer like what Route Science or Internap or the likes have commercially?

Just sounds like the sort of thing somebody would have though of, but I've never seen any mention of it..
