The "winning" IPv6 implementation should be, IMHO, the one who's implementors are willing to maintain it directly in -current as committers. That sounds like the WIDE project to me, frankly. They seemed both willing and eager to do this when I met with some of them in Japan a couple of months back, but let's see what the INRIA folks have to say on the same subject. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
