No. The X-Bone runs over many systems for which there is no RSVP implementation available, and our project is not focused on developing that service. There are other projects, notably CMU’s Darwin/VNS, which are developing QoS support for overlays. The X-Bone can be ported to use that service when it is available. Also, the X-Bone was designed to be used with minimal, if any, modifications to operating systems. Requiring QoS would defeat this goal.
