During his talk, Ted claimed that he lost all connectivity when his uplink
went down.  This should not happen -- HNCP normally maintains an IPv6 ULA
that remains stable no matter what happens to DHCPv6 prefix delegations or
DHCPv4 leases.  This is described in Section 6.5 of RFC 7788, and it is
the default behaviour of hnetd.

Either Ted had tweaked the configuration of hnetd (which one should not
do -- hnetd does the right thing out of the box), or he was using software
that doesn't speak IPv6 or ignores ULAs.  At any rate, HNCP does not have
the issue that Ted described.
