INET6 -- and why I don't use it

The interesting thing, to stay on topic, is that people are willing to  
explore a feature called "SCTP" which to my knowledge is younger than  
"IPv6". This makes the whole discussion sort of moot, right ?

Speaking for the devil's advocate...
The point of insecurity does not hold up if you look at RFC 5062. And  
we had TCP/UDP for many years and they are still serving their purpose  
well, so why change ?

So give it a chance, only then there will be feedback and only then we  
can fix the problems. Otherwise it will stay just theoretical.
