Description
The unstable Ipv6Addr::is_documentation
(#27709) is documented, matching the implementation, as
Returns true if this is an address reserved for documentation (
2001:db8::/32
).This property is defined in IETF RFC 3849.
However, RFC 9637 from Aug 2024 added 3fff::/20
as a documentation space as well, and thus this API should be updated.
This does mean two programs may disagree on whether an address is_documentation
based on which version of the stdlib they use…but I think that's inevitable with anything based on IETF standards. (In some cases it might make sense to explicitly pin the library to an earlier version of the standard, but I don't think that's necessary here.)
