Discussing how we encode IPvN addresses on the wire is always what we were trying to solve. The latest discussions suggest putting them in a new primitive type (an 'extensible union' or whatever you want to call it). As far as I can tell, there are no more loose ends with the design of such a structure, and a draft could be written now. I'd write it myself if I didn't think Derrick was going to do it (and if I were better that writing these kinds of things). -- Andrew Deason [email protected] _______________________________________________ AFS3-standardization mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/afs3-standardization
