Redploying most of 127/8 as unicast public

No, you are not alone. This just gets kinda pathetic.
It also shows how an IPv6 is a failure.
(No please, leave me alone all you IPv6 zealots).

I think its time to go back to design board and start
working on IPv8 ;) so we finnaly get rid of IPv4...

This seems like a really bad idea to me; am I really the only one who noticed?

That's over a week old and I don't see 3000 comments on it, so maybe it's just
me.  So many things are just me.
