     Hi Ross,
     
     Thanks. I've downloaded the file and I'll take a look.

A while ago I did some work on an IP library that I planned to submit to 
Boost. I never finished it, and haven't had time to work on it lately, 
but I offer it in its current state for cannibalisation of anything 
useful:
     
http://storm.net.nz/~ross/c++/boost_ip.tgz
     
The main missing feature that I intended to add was IPv6 support. (This 
would still have left it rather less featureful than the design being 
discussed here.) This version is IPv4 only. Also, there's no test 
harness, the documentation is incomplete (I never got round to writing a 
proper rationale), and there are probably still one or two bugs lurking 
in the undergrowth. Oh, and the file permissions are screwed up because 
it was living on a FAT32 box :-)
