IPv6 is built to be better, but that's not the route to success

Re: Won't happen in my lifetime

your office vlan might be 2001:db8:100:22::/64

Forgive my ignorance, but can anyone explain why isn't it written with leading zeroes, i.e. 2001:0db8:0100:0022::/64? It would make it much more regular to read...

...I'm beginning to regret not investing in one of these IPv6 buddy keypads which up until now would have been most useful for entering MAC addresses but obviously really comes into its own with IPv6! They seem to have closed up shop (link is to cache on the Wayback Machine).
