Hello all, I was wondering if bird implements the RFD procedure, route 
flap damping.

I was looking online on the user guide 2.0 but i didn't find any 
reference to it.
I know it is a controversial point, it was presented in the RFC 2439 and 
then RIPE-378 recommends disabling it thanks to a paper presented in 
2002 (Route Flap Damping Exacerbates Internet RoutingConvergence).
In 2015 IETF publishes BCP 194 with RFD recommendations.

I think could be an interesting parameter for some experiments, so is in 
the future plans of bird to implement it?
What do you think about it?

Thanks,
Mattia
