This is a comical example of the now common use of "2.0" to mean "new".
- Zikes 11y agoIt's a bit ironic since the "v6" literally stands for version 6. IPv4's 2.0 version would be IPv2, a step in the opposite direction.
- devit 11y agoNo, IPv4 + 2.0 = IPv6. Easy math.
- Zikes 11y agoBut if IPv4 was the first version then wouldn't the 2.0 be double that? IPv4 * 2.0 = IPv8 Why are we bothering with IPv6 when clearly IPv8 is the future?
- faitswulff 11y agoGoogle released V8 years ago, now it's all about VP9
- screaminghawk 11y agoWe are skipping v9 and going straight to v10 in an effort to show that this is a new product
- infogulch 11y agoI thought it was because legacy software detected the much older versions, VP95 and VP98, by doing a prefix search for "VP9.*" and they didn't want to break them.
