Hi Matous,

Hello,

my collegues and me were highly surprised with the "abbreviated form with 
all-0-octets ommitted" [1] for IPv4 addresses. It would be good to provide better 
(or rather exact) technical explanation why it is so - either in the documentation or at 
least here in the mailing-list. Any sort of clarification would be highly appreciated for 
this is *very* uncommon and we think it is worth the effort to provide some. We can 
easily live with
it but would like to know the exact reason why it is so...  Thank you.

Well, for that kind of notation, you can refer to the inet manpage, where everything is explained ;-)

(I hope the reply will arrive in the right thread cause I didn't receive the email but found the question in mail-archive instead).
