It's a set of patches. It can't really change the license of the files being patched, right?

Anyway, will clarify this in a minute.

Added a note about GPLv2 in the readme. Is this sufficient? If it is, please close this issue.

Sorry for not looking at the code very well. I am trying to get a router manufacturer to include IPv6 transition features to their Linux-based CPE router and wanted to make sure I was suggesting code that was usable by them. Many thanks for the clarification.

This project was an experiment. It's not a production quality by any means.

Anyway, take a look at this https://doc.turris.cz/doc/en/public/ipv6only. Turris Omnia is an open source router. NAT64 is something like my ip46nat was intended to be, but done properly and working in production.

Good luck with the manufacturer discussions.It's always good to put some extra pressure on them. IPv6 is now roughly 30% of all Internet traffic and growing quickly.
