Bill -

Let me chime in since you mention my proposal:  Can you be a bit more
specific regarding these DNS issues?  The idea to avoid them in
Six/One Router was to put both edge (internal) and transit (external)
addresses into the DNS, and to let the address selection mechanisms in
hosts pick an address that works best.  With appropriate prefixes for
edge and transit addresses, this would work without host changes.
