>> and wow, mptcp is finally merged. Anyone for source specific routing?

Pro memoria, using source-specific routing with Babel was described by
Matthieu many years ago:

You've changed, Benjamin, I recall at one time you were quite willing to
open bottles :-)

> I heard it is only partial...

Yes, from the description it looks like it's partial -- it will establish
an MP-TCP connection, but won't actively establish any new subflows.
Still, it's an important step -- it implies at least agreement in
principle from Miller, which is a big deal.
