 In your previous mail you wrote:

   There seems to be evidence though that
   FTP software was shipping IPv6 code with SAA
   more than 1 year before the patent was applied for
   (August 1996 ship):
   
   www.connectathon.org/talks97/helen.pdf
   
=> the first interoperability test for the SAA was at the Stockholm IETF
in July 1995. Specs were in draft-ietf-addrconf-ipv6-auto-02.txt (03.txt
was submitted the same week) and for Ethernet I remembered we had just
switch to 33:33:x:y:z:t MAC addresses for multicast (we had to fix this
on the fly).
