Let's see. If an implementor got this wrong, and actually tested their implementations with one of the bazillion IPv6 implemenations or test suites (some productized and some nearly 10 years old -- and all of them seeming to do the same thing w.r.t. network byte order), and there was a subsequent dispute about who was right and needed to change their implementation, would anyone care about what was (or was not written) in an RFC on this point? I didn't think so. :-) Thomas -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
