James,
I agree with you concern, and as someone else said the devil is in the details, you points are something that would need to be looked at if enough people though we should move forward and look at an idea like this, which I think we should, but not sure if enough traffic to start down that road yet. If we do though, this is the kind of input we'd need.

This sort of thing was thought of and *rejected* over a decade ago. You will still have ALL the reachability problems from legacy machines that you have with IPv4 + IPv6. Your Windows 95 machine wouldn't be able to reach most of the Internet as it would be under this model. You still need to upgrade all the application and other tools. There never was a magic wand that could fix this. Mark -- Mark Andrews, ISC 1 Seymour St., Dundas Valley, NSW 2117, Australia PHONE: +61 2 9871 4742 INTERNET: marka@isc.org
