Will VLC support the announcement interval algorithm as described in RFC 2974 ?

you can manually force the announcement interval in vlc. If i recall the announcement interval algorithm correctly it requires the announcer to listen to the sap channel, and monitor bandwidth or send frequency. These two parts are done in very different parts of vlc that isn't easily fusable. Also, if I recall this algorithm correctly it causes serious problems, in that announces get sent very very seldom if there are more than just a few announcers on the group.
