OT: Joining Multicast Networks of differeing Types

Hello group,

I have a question about joining differing multicast networks together. Is
there some method to for example join a PIM-DM to a PIM-SM network, ie have
a router terminate a stream and re-stream it (or convert it).

And no using the pim-spare-dense mode command isnt going to cut it! there
are Firewalls which only allow SM and GRE tunneling through them is not an
option.

So picture the scenario - Network A is exlcusively Sparse-mode with
statically defined RPs, Network B is a dense mode network, A user on Network
A wants to join a feed on Network B, Network B is outside Network A
configuration control. Can this realistically be achieved?
