+ipv6calc is a small utility in C to manipulate IPv6 addresses. The intentions
+were to convert a given IPv6 address into compressed format, convert a given
+IPv6 address into the same format like shown in Linux' /proc/net/if_inet6 and
+(because it was not difficulty) migrate ip6_int into. Now only one utiltity is
+needed to do a lot (perhaps the features grow on demand in the future).
+
+This utility will be used in the future to extend features on
+network-functions-ipv6.
