That's interesting news. Why did they try something different in the beta? Maybe they thought that the industry was ready for this, but were wrong? I heard about this change from Tiru Reddy. It would be great if this BOF elicited public statements and/or public policies about Google and Apple's intentions in this space. If it's their goal to go in the direction I outlined, then it would be good to know. -- Michael Richardson <mcr+i...@sandelman.ca> . o O ( IPv6 IøT consulting ) Sandelman Software Works Inc, Ottawa and Worldwide
