Seeing IPv6 as a panacea to this problem is delusional. If network operators wanted the computers inside to be reachable, they could simply map a couple of ports on the firewall to each machine - but the culture is that having reachable clients causes problems at no gain. What would help if is users started excercising power over their ISPs and net admins rather than vice versa, but whose gonna bet a cent on that happening anytime soon... > > _______________________________________________ > Devl mailing list > Devl at freenetproject.org > http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devl -- Oskar Sandberg oskar at freenetproject.org _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl at freenetproject.org http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devl
