Mark,
I really enjoyed your professional remarks for the years and your deep and intrinsic mind,
but it seems that now it is not a time to discuss the issue that ipv4 is scarce resource :)


My opinion that IPv6 was done in the worst manner and we should simply recognize that we have no other way to satisfy industry needs in such short time. 

Nothing personal - as a lot of my friends spent significant part of their life on it.
