Abstract:

   This document gives a historical perspective about the design and
   deployment of multicast routing protocols.  The document describes
   the technical challenges discovered from building these protocols.
   Even though multicast has enjoyed success of deployment in special
   use-cases, this draft discusses what were, and are, the obstacles for
   mass deployment across the Internet.  Individuals who are working on
   new multicast related protocols will benefit by knowing why certain
   older protocols are no longer in use today.
