How would you all feel about removing the old encapsulation methods from 
IPv4 multicast routing as OpenBSD has done?

http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/netinet/ip_mroute.c.diff?r1=1.42&r2=1.43

The last time I deployed any such infrastructure, I had to use gif(4); 
in a NATted world, the encap stuff has never worked cleanly for me or 
been worth the additional effort in deployment.

Regards,
BMS
