in <http://www.merit.edu/mail.archives/nanog/2001-04/msg00294.html> we see: (*2) Q: But what IS the Internet? A: "It's the largest equivalence class in the reflexive, transitive, symmetric, closure of the relationship 'can be reached by an IP packet from'". Seth Breidbart by which definition, matthew's observation would be correct. folks who want to run V6 only and still be "on the internet" will need proxies for a long while. folks who want to run V6 only *today* and not have any proxies *today* are sort of on their own -- the industry will not cater to market non-forces. -- Paul Vixie KI6YSY
