[Xorp-hackers] Multiple multicast routing table support

Hello!

I'm considering adding multiple multicast routing table support to 
xorp.  I believe this will
require Linux kernel changes and possibly some API changes when talking 
to the kernel.
The end goal is to support multiple virtual multicast routers, which 
each of these multicast routers
using only a subset of the interfaces on a particular machine.  This is 
already working for normal
routing tables and OSPF (at least) on Linux.

If someone with more multicast knowledge could let me know what kind of 
changes
would be needed, I would much appreciate it.

Thanks,
Ben
