Did you look at RSTP user space daemon? or is this a new one.

I already have five alternatives for RSTP, and none of them is fully
integrated!  3 user space daemons (1 on rstplib, 1 from EMC, and
another). 2 kernel implementations based on old 2.4 code.

Somewhere down the road, there needs to be one and only one solution
and it has to just work out of the box.  If I had infinite time, or
a major Vyatta customer demanded it, I would just integrate one of
the 2.4 implementations and be done.

It's a new RSTP implementation in user space. I saw a 2.4 RSTP implementation that is integrated into kernel but was not part of the mainline kernel. Which one of the two 2.4 implementations you mentioned is more easier to port to 2.6?
