Hi,

Indeed, you are totally right. The « sticker », literally would break the « 
interoperability » testing between equipment from different vendors…

Is there any mechanism such as "IETF fee waiver" that would let modest 
networking projet to take part of this event ?
If not from EANTC, is there a mechanism where a well established commercial 
vendor such Juniper can sponsor RARE/freeRtr participation ?

If not, I fear that even future participation would be impossible as we are 
part of a non-profit organisation.

I’ve a final question though:
Does interoperability tests exists between Commercial and  Open Source 
networking solution ? 
FRR, OpenBGPd, Quagga, Bird ?

All the best
Frederic,
