Re: moving to IPv6

if global name to 'address' resolution is desired, then the directory mechanism protocols, currently dns, need to be translated at address and/or name domain boundaries. some nats currently do this.

You opened it, so I can't resist. What happens to Secure DNS in this case? The whole idea of "tracable to the root" signing goes out the window in this case.

are there other protocols/data which *must* be translated at boundaries? should kink such as cuseeme be left to die?

(Rotting in steaming piles on the shoulder of the information superhighway?) I think these protocols will need to be fixed or only run in limited areas of the Internet.
