62 Well, I just finished sync'ing portage and immediately
63 did an emerge -pv ftp and, sure enough, there was the
64 +ipv6 flag
65
66
67 from ipv6.org:
68
69 IPv6 is short for "Internet Protocol Version 6". IPv6
70 is the "next generation" protocol designed by the IETF
71 to replace the current version Internet Protocol, IP
72 Version 4 ("IPv4").
73
74 I don't see a date on the page. It was at the top of a
75 google search list.
76
77 "You are using IPv4 from 64.228.98.50" It says, which
78 is true.
79
80 So, is this the bleeding edge? Anyway, I don't think
81 I'll need ipv4 *or* -6 since this is just for pc-2-pc
82 use.
83
84 But now I'm wondering why the +ipv4 flag wasn't added
85 to the emerge options for the earlier package...
