Hi James,

Indeed, we have moved from shipping a fork of an old exabgp in 
bagpipe-bgp (a.k.a."vendoring", i.e. baaad...) to using upstream, but we 
have dependencies on exabgp development branch.

I've been in touch with ExaBGP main author, who plans to release exabgp 
4 from master "soon".
The one pending item he would like to cover before releasing is having 
exabgp run with python3, and not everything is ready [1].

So, while I don't have a full answer on the "when", this is reasonable 
information on the "how" this will happen.
I hope this can be achieved in a timeframe compatible with Pike, and 
plan to spend some time helping this happen.

Once this is done, we'll also work to include exabgp in global-requirements.

Best,

-Thomas
