I thought the real purpose of life was too make
money!!

Joking aside, I agree with Keith Moore, some
things are totally unacceptable and this falls
into that category.  Data integrity should be of
the utmost importance in any network.  The
InterNet is no exception.

 of course you will exuse the providers
if we continue to be perverse and
 find new business models.

 not bloody likely.  some things are
inexcusable.  munging data in
 transit is one of them.  the fact that
you may have a business
 model that says you can make money
doing something that is inexcusable
 is not a justification for doing that thing.

 I'm sick and tired of folks justifing
all manner of brain damage
 merely because they think they can make
money at it.  you'd think
 that they believe that the only purpose
in life is to make money.

 p.s. sorry to single you out, there are
far worse culprits.

have you tried valerian root tea?

I move we reclassify RFC2549 and RFC1149
as historical.

Evidence to support this: 'end of an era'

In particular, I don't think the QoS

ELECTRONIC TELEGRAPH, ISSUE 1725

Spread of radio switches off political pigeon post
By Jon Stock in New Delhi

MORE than 600 Indian police carrier
pigeons face early retirement
after officials decided to replace them
with radios.

The decision to ground the birds before
Wednesday's state assembly
elections in Orissa, eastern India, marks
the end of an era. They
previously played a unique role in
India's electoral process.

They last saw active duty during last
year's general election, when
they carried messages to and from
far-flung polling booths in the
remote Orissa districts of Koraput and
Dhenkanal. The messages
detailed the law and order situation
during polling. The pigeons are
kept in 28 lofts throughout the state and
will now become showpieces
used solely for ceremonial purposes,
according to Baikunthanath Das,
Superintendent of Police (Signals), who
looks after them.

Their demise has been caused by what he
called the advent of new
technology. He said: "Even the most
remote interior areas now have VHF
radios."

The service was the only one of its kind
in India. It was started in
1946 during British rule by the state
police's Signal Establishment,
which bought more than 1,000 pigeons from
the Indian Army after the
Second World War.

RE: IP network address assignments/allocations information?

1999-12-03 Thread mark.paton

Daniel,
Surely you cannot conceive a time when the IP
address' are the domain of everyone.  The growth
of the Internet / Networking within the last 5
years shows you that our current addressing schema
is inadequate for the future demand, if you
extrapolate the current growth in line the growth
in births and longevity of folks then this says in
itself that we can expect an addressing schema
aimed at the "man on the street" and another one
for business and a third for the backbone and a
fourth for the hell of it.

A single IP address' combined with the mobility
factor will make it a very attractive future, why
not get involved and start the WG for it now.  The
future is not that far away.

 If you mean RSIP, RSIP is even further

I too would rather see effort put into
IPv6... if it's going to happen,
let's get going, though... it's been in
the oven too long.

There's one scenario about IPv6 which
worries me, and which may well
make RSIP and NAT in a pure IPv6 world a
reality. Today we have LOTS of
folks using NAT(NAPT really) for
connecting to cable modems and DSL
lines. Some folks are doing this for
dialups too. It's the model for
"home networking" today. Will ISPs be
willing to assign a block of
addresses in the future to home networks?
What does that mean when the
access is a dialup?

Sooner or later, we'll have providers
handing out a single IPv6 address
to any home user customer, just as is
done today with IPv4 addresses. It
is for this user population that RSIP
will likely be a real issue.

One of the things to think about is that
while there is use of various
NAT flavors in corporate environments, it
is or will be nearly
ubiquitous in the home market. Linux and
Windows both include credible,
functional NAPT solutions today. Is it
ugly? Sure. Is there any chance
it'll stop being attractive to the home
user? Unlikely.
