== Differentiate between IP4 and IPV6 ==

Would it be better to split the IP4 and IPV6 into separate tasks here? Or maybe require the code sections to be suitably commented so that we can see which sections of code apply to each of the protocols.

Task definition

Is this task just about address lookups, or are we to look up more information besides? For example, MX records (which I note www.kame.net doesn't have…) –Donal Fellows 12:21, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Differentiate between IP4 and IPV6

Would it be better to split the IP4 and IPV6 into separate tasks here? Or maybe require the code sections to be suitably commented so that we can see which sections of code apply to each of the protocols.
