Hi, Well, I feel compelled to ask: what are folks opinions about the IPv6-readiness of Hadoop?
Doing some searching around, I think it's stated up-front that Hadoop is not IPv6 ready, and there's little interest in IPv6 support as Hadoop is meant to be within the data center (which I suppose stays on IPv4?). This leads to two questions: 1) How "un-ready" is the stack for IPv6? Is it a matter of sending a committer into a dark room for 6 months? Or are there protocol issues? 2) How strongly do folks feel about not even attempting IPv4? Alright - everyone go to work, ponder these questions, and attempt to get an IPv6 address. Brian
