I have to agree that info is scattered many places not just the asterisk
site, but also voip-info, and a couple of threads on this list.

One this i just noticed, is that all of them are related to 1.6 or
older. That is, the field definitions for ip-adresses are just 15
characters wide. For most of us, that will be enough, but if you ever
tried to store a ipv6 address into it, it will be severely truncated.

So in order to be v4/v6 agnostic, it should be atleast 40 characters
wide (4*8 hex charecters with seven colons)...
