What

This is a package containing the bits of the old inet.af/netaddr package that didn't make it into Go 1.18's net/netip standard library package.

As background, see:

https://github.com/inetaf/netaddr/ (now deprecated)
https://tailscale.com/blog/netaddr-new-ip-type-for-go/ - blog post about why the package came to be originally
https://go.dev/doc/go1.18#netip - Go 1.18 release notes

This package requires Go 1.18+ to use and complements the net/netip.

FAQ

Why's it no longer under inet.af? Since that joke started, that TLD is now under control of the Taliban. (Yes, we should've known better. We'd even previously scolded people for relying on questionable ccTLDs. Whoops.)

Will this stuff make it into the standard library? Maybe. We'll see.
