+ Happy Eyeballs Algorithm: Success with Dual-Stack Hosts.
+ When a server's IPv4 path and protocol are working, but the server's
+ IPv6 path and protocol are not working, a dual-stack client
+ application experiences significant connection delay compared to an
+ IPv4-only client. This is undesirable because it causes the dual-
+ stack client to have a worse user experience. This document
+ specifies requirements for algorithms that reduce this user-visible
+ delay and provides an algorithm.
