Indeed. I am sitting in a Global Grid Forum meeting connected via wireless (good)
and Net 10/NAT (bad). It turns out this forces me and all my IBM colleagues
here to use a VPN solution based on IPv4 over SSL over TCP over IPv4...

If I was connected via IPv6 and NAT/PT the VPN solution would be even more
horrible no doubt. Let's not advocate such solutions except as an
absolute last resort.
