Throughout the document, when it says:
Multicasting is supported, but requires the implementation of a clone device. Carriers may be lost if they are based on a tree as it is being pruned. The carriers propagate via an inheritance tree. The carriers have an average TTL of 15 years, so their use in expanding ring searches is limited. Additional quality of service discussion can be found in a Michelin's guide.
It should say:
Multicasting is supported, but requires the implementation of a clone device. Carriers may be lost if they are based on a tree as it is being pruned. The carriers propagate via an inheritance tree. The carriers have an average TTL of 15 years, so their use in expanding ring searches is limited. NOTE: Geese are for UDP only, as they are indifferent to any query, regardless of target. Expect all Geese allocated traffic to be one way only. Additional quality of service discussion can be found in a Michelin's guide.
Notes:
Geese have not been thoroughly considered for their jerk-ishness and need to be included in the documentation as a warning to anyone considering utilization of aviary modes of data transportation.
