If we want people to even think of moving to IPv6 we will have to make as much of FreeBSD's functionality work on there as possible. > > So far IPv6 has gotten no futher than OSI ever did. I think I was lucky to have mostly been screened from OSI, so I can't really compare them. IPv6 seem quitealive to me though.
