This is not true, unless your only view of the world is the IPv4 Legacy Internet. Or does IPv8 come with LEO satellites and gigahertz-band @ spread-spectrum transcieving code that uses the low-order databit of a @ given memory location as a backup communications link? @ The Internet was built just like children build telephone systems, with tin cans and kite string. New networks can be constructed the same way and the Legacy IPv4 Internet can be used when it is handy but other networks can also be used. People keep trying to move the Internet back to a central model. To "reinvent the net", you have to turn 180 degrees and look out not in. @ Please. It's one thing to be championing an alternative standard (look @ where alt.* has come these days), but at least avoid making a total @ nuisance of yourself 8) @ Why are you so threatened by IPv8...have you looked at it...??? @ > Jim Fleming @ @ -- @ ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ -- Jim Fleming UNETY Systems, Inc.
