Welcome!

I did a quick search on IPv6, but didn't learn anything about the
programming side.  Maybe you can enlighten us.

From an application programming point of view, what are the differences
between IPv6 and IPv4?  Is an IPv6-enabled application also compatible
with IPv4?

If the changes are relatively simple and are backward-compatible, then
I'd invite you to help us make Mash work with IPv6.  If you know of any
FAQs we should read, let us know.

Thanks,
Lloyd
