No worries.
I'm less worried about the use of this prefix than its use 'for good'.

We do have to remember that this prefix is the IP equivalent of 256 barrels
of radioactive waste. Toxic to all who touch them. I'm sure Geoff can give
the exact Geiger counter measurements :)

I'm in favour of finding a use for this prefix, but we have a duty of care
to ensure that end users are not harmed.

Supporting someone who can reuse toxic waste to fight cancer...  Great Idea!
Selling it to the highest bidder to use as a cheap house paint additive...
Not such a great idea.  Even if you donate the money to charity.


Thanks for bringing this topic up David, now we just have to find the right
thing to support.

Ideas?

Dean
