Apologies for coming in a bit late into the discussion. The new network plugin/code was orignally done by Ian and mangled by myself (with contributions by Bert and Yoshiki IIRC) to be used in etoys as OLPC is IPv6 only. So would be worthwhile checking the etoys network code. Idea behind getting the code into Pharo was to enable more than the really outdated and bare bones network access available through the old network code. That the new stuff still doesn't work is a shame, but IMHO we should fix it rather than throwing it out. Patching the current code to allow use of the old network stuff would buy us time to fix the new code.
