Experimental routing protocols

It's been 10 years that the IETF has been working to achieve the goal of a secure reliable IP Multicast. The article speaks to a proposal at the November 2006 MBONED IEFF working group. Seperate proposals for secure IP Multicast and reliable IP Multicast have been made, however no other proposed protocols are both reliable and secure. TODO: Cover other proposed secure/reliable multicast protocols as they appear. --Hulkeypoo 18:06, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is pretty weird stuff, as the reason for tying up reliability and security in one protocol is not given. Protocols such as NORM work fine on IPsec. Is this specific protocol alive? Noteworthy?
