Seems pretty far fetched to me that there would have ever been a chance to have IPv6 in Win9x. For comparison, afain FreeBSD was the forerunner with IPv6 support, and they got it in 2000. So I'd say they "missed the deadline" by 5+ years. It was probably around 2005 when we realistically had somewhat usable IPv6 support at base OS level.
- xxpor 5y agoI think the point was that it changed the whole demand curve. If the major consumer OS at the time had v6 support things like FreeBSD would have added it earlier.
