   Hello Bj”rn,   
      
   On Tuesday March 26 2019 14:01, you wrote to me:   
      
    MvdV>> Some ISPs in Europe have started issuing a DS-Lite connection   
    MvdV>> to new customers. That means they have no public IPv4 address.

    BF> network?   
      
   I did indeed suspect that was what was offered to you. No, it is not what I   
   thought you /should/ be considering. But with your scientific background, I   
   would have expected you to take a quick look under the hood now that the   
   vehicle was accidentally parked on your driveway. Just out of curiosity. I   
   certainly would have. Independant of whether I wanted it for myself or not.   
      
    BF> As opposed to my, longer than you, tunnels from first SixXS and then   
    BF> he.net.   
      
   Why the pissing contest? I do not know if your SixXs tunnel predated mine or   
   not. I did not keep the records after they closed shop. It may or it may not.   
   What I do know is that my Fidonet IPv6 connectivity predates yours. I am #4 on   
   the list, you are #12. Plus that I have the he.net sage T-shirt...   
      
    BF>    Sometimes I really do not understand you, Michiel. :(   
      
   That goes both ways. I suspect that is at least partly due to both of us   
   having to make do with a language that is not our native language.   
      
   Cheers, Michiel
