Erm, I know I posted about this a while back, but I think this is
potentially an important one. I haven't got a graphical browser just
now - so I cannot look at the graphs online - so this may be all
complete speculation, but can someone please extrapolate when we
will hit 2^16 routes in the general world ? Subtract a few week
window for local routes to push people over the 2^16 number and
then can we sit back and wonder how many routers / vendors / software
implementations will have some bug at that number ?
If I were being a millenial sceptic, I could hazard a guess at about
New Years Eve for that date ... :-)
