	My understanding is that they have their own protocol
they are working on, but i've not heard any clear details.

	My understanding is that the major detraction for them was they
didn't want to embed it into the existing BGP system.  The original reasoning
behind doing that was it was easy to leverage the existing bgp code as
the online "database" of information store on the filters.

	Even if cisco does their "own thing", i hope they publish
the spec for it so others can build tools or even a translator between
the two.
