*Please take note of the important check-in details at Yelp (outlined below)*

We've been hearing about IPv6 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6) for a while (it was originally conceived in 1994 (http://www.ipv6.com/articles/general/timeline-of-ipv6.htm)), and while IPv4 has served us well for over 30 years, it appears the inevitable (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv4_address_exhaustion) is finally catching up to us. Fortunately, Owen DeLong, an IPv6 Evangelist at Hurricane Electric (http://ipv6.he.net/), offered to tell us about what the future has in store for us. Note that this event is not really Java-specific, but rather of consequence to all developers that touch the network stack. This event is co-organized with the SF Android User Group (http://www.meetup.com/sfandroid/events/127299302/) (please RSVP only once).

This session will begin with a discussion of the importance of adding IPv6 support to applications which use the network followed by an introduction to the fundamentals of IPv6. Finally, we'll analyze the same sample application (client and server) implemented in IPv4 and then ported to IPv6 in C, PERL, and Python.
