Another IPv6 Implementation.

[qv@sparky.iol.unh.edu (Quaizar Vohra)]

Hi,

We at the University of New Hampshire would like to announce another
Public Domain Implementation for IPv6. It was started with an aim to
develop a 64 bit implementation for the public domain.  It has several
significant differences from existing IPv6 implementations.

It has been developed on NetBSD 1.2 running on Digital Alpha 64 bit
processor. It might also run over 32 bit architectures (though I have
not tested this, but it should not be a big problem). 

I have tested the implementation using the UNH InterOperabilty Labs. 
test suite and it interoperates with other implementations.

The code base is accessible at :

	ftp://sun4.iol.unh.edu/pub/ipv6

The packages can be accesses in gzipped or compressed form.

	unh-ipv6-kit-0.0.tar.gz	(for gunzip)
	unh-ipv6-kit-0.0.tar.Z	(for uncompress)

Some documentation is provided in the README and NOTES file about
the installation procedure and about features supported by this 
implementation.

Public Domain DHCPv6 code has also been written for this code base
by Yunzhou Li. This was announced a couple of weeks back.

If you have questions, suggestions etc., contact me at :
	qv@sun4.iol.unh.edu

For discussion of this implementation and associated problems, use
the IPv6 implementors list at :
	ipv6imp@munnari.oz.au

You can subscribe to it by sending a mail to :
	ipv6imp-request@munnari.oz.au

The release has a postscript file which has discusses this
implementation. It is unh-ipv6-proj.ps

I am very grateful to a bunch of people for this, who are :

Bill Lenharth at InterOperability Lab. (UNH)
Jim Bound (Digital Equipment Corp.)
Prof. Robert D. Russell (UNH)
Yunzhou Li (NUS)
Digital Alpha DUNIX IPv6 Team

A special thanks goes to the NetBSD community and IETF.

Sincerely,
Quaizar
