I've been told no ways that it's broken. This phase is about as serious as
people telling me I'm wrong.

So far about 21 days ago someone told me it was silicon. So i worked that
one out.

Put the ipv8 asns your responsible for in VRFs.

Other than that I've faced a lot of "im an idiot" but no ipv8 doesn't work
because...

It's usually an argument from authority, ipv8 doesn't work because i say
so, rather than an argument from fact.

Ipv8 will gain a new afi type but it can ride in MP-BGP VPN-IPv4 for a long
while.
