We have done IPv6 testing for the last few releases; a couple of
community members were very helpful in checking that F18 and F19 worked
out of the box in a typical IPv6 environment, and we took showstopper
bugs in IPv6 as release blockers. We've had a couple of IPv6 test days
too. It would certainly be good to continue this effort, perhaps with a
test day for F20 or F21.
