Current predictions estimate the life expectancy (given current growth
rates) of the Internet address space to be ~5 years. If the growth curve
takes another dramatic upswing, this has the potential to become problematic
in less time. Several engineering groups within the IETF have been chartered
to design solutions to this pressing problem which are referred to as IPng,
or Internet Protocol, next generation."

I jumped into this IPNG group after being part of the working group that
created the Winsock API.
After a very long time and debate it came up with TUBA - TCP and UDP with
Bigger Addresses.
My how times have changed!
