Hi

We plan to to release 2.0 during this year, mainly with features that are
already in pre1, and some minor additions (like IPv4 in Babel, IPv4 in
OSPFv3, VRFs, microsecond timers, ...). We have no fixed plan for
features after that, but we definitely will work on usable MPLS support
(with LDP) and we plan to integrate PIM-BIDIR multicast routing (it was
implemented for BIRD some time ago as a student project).
