Scaling dv to a million is something of a challenge.

I would dearly like someone to work with on attempting to implement
new metrics in babel.

Juliusz has described multiple possibilities that seemed promising
that neither he nor I have had time to work on in isolation.

Also fred baker has outlined some interesting ideas for SRC/DST
routing  and address assignment that were just demoed in the ietf
homenet's ospf implementation last week. I think many of the same
ideas and tlvs can be carried over into babel.

Now that I am wrapping up the bufferbloat work

(see cablemodem results at:
http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/86/slides/slides-86-iccrg-3.pdf )

I can also conceive possibilities for wifi congestion and link quality
aware metrics that haven't been tried before...

I hinted at some of them at the MIT talk, "what's wrong with wireless"
