matrix.conf is the configuration file from matrix.pl and is
a joint work of Hugo Santos, Sebastien Chaumontet and Mickael Hoerdt. It has
been done in the early days of the m6bone, when nobody knew if the SPTs or
RPTs were being used between hosts and also to evaluate the performance and
deployment of SSM.
