Btw: There where two other flooding refinements we discussed:

Store the original-loop-count in the packet so the GRASP API on
receivers could provide the hopcount distance of the announcer
distance = original-loop-count - loop-count.

Refine flood pruning as: 
 If the distance of a received announcement is smaller than the
 distsance of the cached announcement, flood the new packet (and put
 into cache).
