I agree. And not only for the consumers, but also for the repository itself (no need to *additionally* store the original textual input, but only a normalized internal representation). Whether the full form address is capitalized or not, I wouldn't mind at this stage. These comments applied originally only to the IPv6 glue of nservers, but as Jeroen pointed out, inet6num objects would benefit from the suggestion, too. Regards, Marcos
