Anyone can design a system for use by highly motivated geniuses.

It takes a lot more skill to build something that can be used by
people whose primary motivation is not to make 'your stuff' work.

The issue Ned raises is very typical of what most engineers spend 80%
of their time on - fixing stupid issues that need never have existed
if someone else had done their job a little better or described what
they are doing more accurately.


The only people who are going to have labs set up to test the full
range of IPv6 interop issues are people whose primary focus is IPv6
interop. Ergo anyone who wants the typical application engineer to
develop IPv6 compatible code had better work out how to completely
encapsulate all those issues at the platform level.
