[ixpmanager] v4 OpenBGPd Template

[Mike Hammett]

I have reached out to Peter via e-mail and LinkedIn. Other than accepting my LinkedIn request, I haven't gotten anything back. 

Could you poke him when you get a chance?

Correct. 

To make it into the IXP Manager distribution (if that's your intention) 
would requires that the CLA [1] be signed and near feature parity with 
the existing Bird configs (specifically: secure by default):

Peter Hessler of OpenBGPd has also expressed an interest in working on this. 

v4 now also includes a looking glass using Birdseye. Non-Bird route 
servers would not be supported for this either BUT we've written the LG 
implementation so that it's backend agnostic.

I specifically had GoBGP in my mind here as they have a super API 
interface but we just need to see it used in production as route servers 
for a while before spending time on it.
