Hi all,
June 6, 2012 is IPv6 Day ( http://www.worldipv6day.org/ ). The goal of this global event is to move more ISPs, equipment manufacturers and web services to permanent adoption of IPv6.
We're planning to do limited production testing of IPv6 during the Berlin Hackathon 2012 (June 2-3). Provided that the number of issues we encounter are manageable, we may fully enable IPv6 on IPv6 day, and keep it enabled.
Thanks Erik and all who are working on this! It's important work and I'm glad to see us joining the community of sites and organizations who are prepared for this necessity.
(Acknowledging the potential issues others have mentioned, I'm also glad to see it while there are still few users who will be using IPv6, so the problems that arise will be much smaller than they would be in the future.)
Cheers, Kat
