Dear Omar,

- Your IPv10 proposal doesn't solve the IPv6 deployment problems, you
  basically get an additional IPv10 deployment problem.
- IPv10 doesn't allow an IPv6-only host to communicate to an IPv4-only
  host and vice versa as stated in the I-D. Hint: an IPv4-only host
  has got no idea what an IPv6 address is, let alone an "IPv10 address".
- As others already pointed out: the proposal is technically flawed
  and does not work.

Repeating this over and over again does not work. IMHO you only can
move forward with a _technically sound_ proposal, otherwise many
people will regard it as waste of time.

There are various WGs in the IETF that try to work towards better
solutions. You may not like them, but they are at least rough
community consensus.

Best,
