I feel that IPv6 should be a minimum requirement. At the time the author
felt it should be an advanced paid-for feature. I treat commercial
vendors the same way: no IPv6, no sale. That nastygram made me not want
to donate (money or code) to IPplan. One shouldn't get into open source
expecting money.

The world moves forward and what is seen as a minimum requirement is
eventually going to move with it.

didn't we just have this whole discussion three months ago?

that being said, IPv6 exists in the beta versions that are currently available.
