Re: IPv8 / BGP8 / CF

Joe,

No patent apps it's all free. Corp isn't moving off ipv4 to ipv6. So ipv8
is an upgrade to ipv4.

So still need to fix the issues in ipv4/ipv6.

Like merging to companies both using 10.x

Unless a move is made ipv4 will still be running the warp drive.

People are planning to build ipv8 right now.
