6in4 == deprecated automatic tunneling mechanism ... HE is an example of
manually configured Protocol41 encaps.
And 6to4 doesn't allow IPv6 to talk to IPv4, contrary to what the name seems
to imply :).
Some poorly chosen names for our tunneling, yes?
Thanks, TJ's Droid2

I think 6automaticallyover4 was determined to be too long. 
Deprecated? Do you have a reference...?
Thanks, K.
He is mistaken... HE Tunnels are an example of 6in4 and it is not deprecated,
but, some original mechanisms for 6in4 to which he may be referring were
deprecated.

Apologies, was thinking 6over4 ... And I still think we could have done
better at naming these (DSTM, anyone?)
