>People who wrote v4-only applications will just fail on v6only hosts. >No confusion. You mean people why write dual-stack applications will just see them fail on v6only hosts. Yes, that is an issue. And that's an issue we need to address. Not by adding DNS64 and predenting everything is fine, except for a long list of things that all don't work with DNS64. >It's only people who were v6-clueful on the application, and yet have *not* >deployed v6 servers, who will run into problems. Are we now at the point where it is okay to break IPv4-only services? Maybe that's a bit detached from the real world? >Just *(@$#5324 deploy v6 already.

If you cannot put a standards track RFC in an RFP (and RFC 6147 is standards track) then that is not something the IETF needs to fix? _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
