We'll all have to answer "hard"ware of course, since admitting we forward 
the Experiment's traffic in "soft"ware would be rather embarassing, right?

P.S.  I'm writing this from behind a monopoly ISP who deliberately blocks 
all proto 41 traffic, and thus 6to4, so I have no idea what content, if any, 
the Experiment is actually providing...  Anyone want to give me a Teredo 
relay for "research" purposes?  :)
