Irrelevant, get use to this word Jim. IPv8 has nothing to do with the 
transition from IPv4 to IPv6, it is your own personal push for something 
that is unfounded.

It does not sound like you are connected to the global Internet,

As stated in RFC 3056 of the 3FFE address space, "It is not intended as a 
permanent solution"

3FFE space is not production space, it could be removed at any time without 
reason or cause. There are no guarantees of service for 3FFE space, what 
this has to do with NGTRANS, is yet again irrelevant.

Since when is Microsoft the Internet? irrelevant yet again to the 
transition stage as Microsoft have no production or beta application's for 
IPv6. They have an IPv6 stack, nothing more. Kinda like a car without an 
engine.

Funny enough, the messsage is from yourself. You seem to recite yourself 
over an over. Irrelevant yet again to the transition stage

The NGTRANS list is about the transition from IPv4 to IPv6, not for your 
personal push for everyone to adopt IPv8 addressing format.

You have made no collective wealth of information which actually means 
something relevant to the transition stage of IPv4 to IPv6, all you have 
are links to yourself, and search engines, not to mention the collective 
links to .Biz information.
