Yes, like Bob said. If you try to do the Right Thing you'll find that
the rest of the world hasn't caught up yet and all sorts of things
will break. I think some day there will come another y2k panic moment
when folks realize that we really *have* run out of ip addresses and
then everyone will scurry around to backfill patching code that should
have been done long ago.
Ha, Ha, Ha . . . Mark et al; I have spent my life doing the Wrong Thing,
so I can really see no besetting reason to change now.
The nonsense on the BBC website (the BBC being specialists in nonsense,
especially when it comes to computers)
says something about 2015 being the date when IPv4 will vanish of the
face of the earth. But the other day I was, as
usual, working out kids' exam marks with a slide-rule, so 'Boo' to that!
