A man jumps from a skyscraper and falls down to his doom.
Two floors from the ground a guy opens his window and asks him "How
are you going?". The man jumping down says "So far so good!".
It was somewhere early 2001 when I had the first IPv6 tunnels on
my computer and that my MUD server was reachable via it. There is
no excuse for any software not being able to work with it. There
is no excuse for any ISP not having it rolled out. There is no
excuse for any hardware vendor not supporting it.
Just my rant,
Edwin
