Why does it need to be removed ? According to me, it would be the same mi=
stake=20
as the removal of netiso and netccitt. I did not know FreeBSD at this tim=
e,=20
but nowadays, in order to get an OS that supports many stacks, we have to=
 use=20
NetBSD.

BSD4.4 was designed in order to support many stacks, FreeBSD 6, 7 ou 9 wi=
ll=20
support only IPv4 and IPv6, won't they ?

I do not think that it needs to be removed. One should try to keep this=20
feature.

Regards,
  Vincent
