What's the rush?

If we believe that IPv6 is a noteable milestone, then what better time to
introduce it and get a "splash" with it than the ".0" major release.  Do you
really think people will notice much when you introduce new protocol stacks
in minor releases (.1, .2, etc)?  If you dispute that, perhaps you're due for
a routine reality check.

Cheers,
Chris
