As far as I understand, all current implementations of Netsukuku uses IPv4 and 10.0.0.0/8, which does not mix well with private networks, VPNs and so on.

But at the same time in the IPv6 world there is such thing as "Unique Local IPv6 Unicast Addresses" which seems to be Just Right for Netsukuku or similar networks: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4193

Maybe Netsukuku should use choose a Global ID and aim primarily for IPv6, allowing to use Netsukuku together with existing IPv4, IPv6 and with other private IPv6 networks (that use other Global ID).

Here is example of such prefix:

    fdf4:0a5c:11c8::/48

fd00::/8 is "Unique Local IPv6 Unicast" area, f40a5c11c8 is Netsukuku's Global ID, the rest 80 bits can be chosen by Netsukuku.
