IPv6 support may be nice, and even desirable. However, supporting IPv6 should not come at the cost of causing problems either in compilation or at runtime on those platforms that do not support IPv6 natively. Requiring additional preview code or non-standardly-supplied packages to be installed is fine if people _want_ to take advantage of the new IPv6 functionality, but _not_ fine if this IPv6 functionality is not required. IPv4 support should not require the installation of additional IPv6 packages. Well, that's my 2 cent's worth (even if that's only 1 cent US <wink>). -- Mark Favas - m.favas@per.dem.csiro.au CSIRO, Private Bag No 5, Wembley, Western Australia 6913, AUSTRALIA
