Has anyone looked at supporting IPv6 at this stage? IANA only has a little
more than 150million addresses left that they can assign, and then the address pool is exhausted. Some are targeting March 2011 as the end date of IPv4 availability.
I doubt IPv4 will be unavailable in March. It might be difficult to get more public IP's, though.

IPv6 is on the feature list for the next version post-4.3. It will be interesting to test, since I have no IPv6 networks except my home
network to test it on. If any of you have a working IPv6 network,
then I will be interested in volunteers for testing it.
