Re: Multicast Last Mile BOF report

There are a number of concerns, including security, potential for
using this for DoS, and whether there's a business model for the
replicator.  Much of the discussion ratholed on whether there's a
business model, and to what extent this works around existing ISP's
business models.

        my guess is that DoS/abuse possibility is very similar to that of
        6to4 relay routers, or even worse (as multicast-last-mile creates
        state while 6to4 relay router does not).
