How disengenuous. He certainly doesn't. Did you miss the sarcasm. The only reason he advocates is because others using it allow him to keep running ipv4 pure networks. After that I'm sure you can forgive me if I note him to have absolutely no reason to be biased and give him a bit more credit and take his experience of writing one of the best and widely used interrupt driven firewalls and so code to deal with ipv6, helping get the netqmail patch sorted and runs his own decent sized network over yours who I am sure is genuine but could well be partial to ipv6 because as you say you teach setting up ipv6 networks. http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=124536321827774&w=2 > > > > http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=135325826302392&w=2 > > > > This email has absolutely no technical content whatsoever. Did you not follow the threads? I couldn't find the juicier threads about client troubles due to added complexity but here's some relevent ones and many by very competent devs. (and if I'm honest who tend to shadow every other list I've come across so far as long as you are not timid and can take a hit, though Gentoo is up there). http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=128822984018595&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=135325736302228&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=128825496411711&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=129665675320651&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=135111069427240&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=135110983026959&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=135110833526455&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=135110805826344&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=135110703125929&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=135110533625263&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=124537193506202&w=2 -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
