Actually, this is suggestive of a talk topic...

I have thus far pretty actively evaded involvement with IPv6.

I keep adding "-4" stanzas to the startups of ISC services ;-)

But I'd like to do better than that; my Debian instances would be decently
happy speaking IPv6, I think, and probably my Android devices, too.

I have a mix of OpenWRT/DDWRT routers, probably could operate IPv6 at that
layer, too.

Actually, this is perhaps a good place for a meeting of some short topics
on IPv6...
