Was there ever an extension for TCP or SCTP to "explicitly" deal with
anycast, eg: SYN to reponder anycast, SYN-ACK back from responder
unicast, but with data field indicating anycast address and nonce from
SYN, then ACK back to responder unicast ?

I can't remember / find anything like this right now. WOuld be
lovely for SPUD to consier including something like this. Heck,
could even do this with multicast and let initiator send ACK
back to fastest responder ;-)

Cheers
