Do you have the Volker Tangers permission to submit this text to the IETF?

Hi V.Tanger,

3. An alternative form that is sometimes more convenient when dealing
     with a mixed environment of IPv4 and IPv6 nodes is
     x:x:x:x:x:x:d.d.d.d, where the 'x's are the hexadecimal values of
     the six high-order 16-bit pieces of the address, and the 'd's are the 
decimal values of the four low-order 8-bit pieces of the
     address (standard IPv4 representation).  Examples:

        0:0:0:0:0:0:13.1.68.3

        0:0:0:0:0:FFFF:129.144.52.38

     or in compressed form:

        ::13.1.68.3

        ::FFFF:129.144.52.38

This is not the idea of IPv10, IPv10 means the source address can be IPv4 and 
the destination address can be IPv6 and vice versa, this is not mapping as 
mentioned in RFC4291.

Best regards,

Khaled Omar

Greetings!

I read your suggested IPv10 at
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-omar-ipv10-06.html

In RfC 4291 (https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4291.txt) section 2.5.5. there already 
is a mechanism to directly map IPv4 adresses into IPv6. This already enables 
4-4/6-6/6-4/4-6 adressing/rewriting.

Maybe you could elaborate on why IPv10 is superiour, especially as the direct 
mapping of IPv4 into IPv6 as described in RfC4291 has the advantage that the 
stack already is implemented, mapping on 4-6 / 6-4 gateways is dead simple and 
that it does not need a 3rd packet parser stack?

Thanks a lot!

Volker Tanger
