IPv6 status:
= "done". initial ipv6-sip calls working well.
= is an "important" patch as the number of hunks and also because of  
"structural" changes for networking code.
= was done the way one normally port an application to IPv6: i.e.  
make the application (i.e. chan_sip here) IP version un-aware (as  
much as one can) by using the new socket API (RFC3493)
= this means that we want to heavily test it internally before  
releasing it. We very recently got some (hard) IP phones IPv6-enabled  
to test. We are also awaiting one (soft) IP phone vendor to provide a  
beta build of their IPv6 version. With all these testing, we should  
be in good shape.
= this also means having future discussions with other developers  
involved in networking to "adopt" the new socket calls, etc...
= was done on a few months old SVN trunk version. need to remerge  
with current trunk.
= intent to remerge after 1.4 and then release it.
= this port is for basic IPv6 functionality. No "complex" stuff such  
as ANAT (RFC4091, RFC4092) or signaling in one IP and then media in  
other IP, has been touched yet.

A talk is scheduled during Astricon, in the developer track. We will  
be discussing all of this at that time. Please come!
