That's QUITE a litany of issues.

I'm surprised at the lack of support for iPv6. That's been around for quite some time and although it is not as widely accepted as I think it SHOULD be, I would have thought FMI would be more proactive. Oh....wait....I'd forgotten about all the thinks they should have added back in FMP3 days.....<heavy sigh>....

Richard observes:

I have no inside technical knowledge, so I'll let somebody who does give a definitive answer to this, but it's possible that FMI would have had to fiddle with the basic ".FP7" file format to include IP6 compatibility. I for one am delighted that they've been able to make ".FP7" last as long as they have, and it would take a lot more than IP6 compatibility to make me want to have to deal with a new file format.
