Why isn't the Internet and 3D technology used for the IETF meetings ? The Next Generation IPv8 Internet has that. Why is the IPv4 Internet stuck in the stone ages ?
All of the technology is in place and Address Space is FREE. 2047 IPv8 Blocks have been FREEly allocated to IN-ADDR.<TLD> managers. http://www.ntia.doc.gov/ntiahome/domainname/130dftmail/unir.txt On October 25, 2001 Microsoft will launch Windows XP which supports IPv8 Addressing. Companies like New.Net are making it possible for people to register IN-ADDR.<TLD> names. Companies like TuCows are helping to break down the .COM monopoly with .INFO names. http://www.IN-ADDR.INFO The .BIZ Community is growing. It is time to build a new Internet based on fair IP allocations. The Proof-of-Concept work on the IPv4 Internet can continue, but true pioneers need to move on. The technology is now in place to route around the I* organizations, "It Seeks Overall Control". http://www.dot-biz.com/Registry/ProofConcept/index.html Do you use a 2002:<IPv4>:0000 prefix ? http://www.dot-arizona.com/IPv8/IPv4/ http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/ietf/Current/msg12213.html [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.unir.com http://www.unir.com/images/architech.gif http://www.unir.com/images/headers.gif http://www.unir.com/images/address.gif http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/sdks/platform/tpipv6/start.asp http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/ietf/Current/msg12213.html http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/ietf/Current/msg12223.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pete Resnick" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2001 9:24 AM Subject: Re: participation in IETF meetings > On 10/23/01 at 9:49 AM -0400, RJ Atkinson wrote: > > >Many have been the meetings where folks who want to actively > >participate in that meeting are unable to get in or unable to sit > >down. > > I'm sorry, but I really think this is a problem with the > person/persons chairing the meeting.
