Hello Kees,

On Tuesday December 19 2017 13:50, you wrote to me:

I didn't know that, but including IPv6 by default makes sense. That a sysop who wishes to add IPv6 to his node would not knowingly and willingly install a binkd version that does not support IPv6 is a reasonable assumption.

So we can move "binkp version supports IPv6?" to the bottom of the checklist?


Cheers, Michiel
