Our primary development platform is FreeBSD. We also support Linux, and
Click support should be back in for the 1.1 release. Performance work
within XORP is ongoing; there is also a Win32 port planned.

I just added blackhole support last week to CVS, and TCP-MD5 support has
been in XORP for some months now, so hopefully by the time 1.1 comes out
XORP should be a viable replacement for Quagga at least for the roles
Sentex is using it for.
