I don't believe the technical details are as significant as the
systemtic change to the boundaries of trusted software maintainers.
Consider this comment, which appears to be the core justification:

The *reason* localhost is a reserved name is to discourage its use in
DNS names. Your proposal is the opposite to that intended by

The belief of operating systems' programmers that a lack of a default
gateway must imply no network connectivity constricts useful network
designs.
My objection to the "gateway" name is simply
HTTPS is the correct protocol then please consider using
another port number than 443.

Hi Lennart,
I suppose someone should mention small flash-disk-only computers.
There traditionally we fling syslog messages to the serial console or a LRU
buffer in RAM (often the dmesg buffer). The point is to avoid I/O on the flash
memory. Syslog daemons tend to do a lot of fsync-ed I/O, which

Consider an anycast service where the alias interface reflects the availability
of the service on the server. An OSPF or BGP daemon then advertises the address
of the alias
Kickstart is fine for centrally managed devices. They've got experienced
sysadmins who don't mind getting dirty with configuration files.
The real kicker is people who manage their own device: not just BYOD
but also part-time sysadmins who can't run the corporate distribution.

I don't understand why, having learned this lesson, we are moving from
ennumeration-centric names to bus-centric names, even where the system
itself has told us what the interface name actually is.

the use of the word "independent". I have a statistical background and
that word carries a meaning similar to "unrelated".
Perhaps you could state your argument with more explanation
Thank you, Glen

Cisco is not the world's only networking vendor and some other
vendors make their software available as a VM image for evaluation and
learning. You might add the ready availability of learning platforms to
the Request for Tender the next time you make a major networking purchase.

a DVD image, but can write a CD image). So this isn't only a third-world
issue, but one faced by anyone trying to get Linux running whilst on low

ce if you don't provide a lever than an attacker
can't push against it. Keeping a large sample on permanent storage of
"random numbers" generated by that very machine is providing a very
large lever to push against any flaw.

It also depends if statefull DHCP6 host configuration was supported in a
previous release, in that case a regression leads to such a complicated
scenario for network engineers and systems administrators that the bug
should be release blocking.
