I noticed my linode kernel has IPv6 support.

Does linode have any plans to offer IPv6 support?


I know I could get my own tunnelbroker account, but I'm lazy and really don't need 2^64 addresses. Just enough to write 0xDEADBEEF in would be cool.

Just what benifit is there in using IPV6? I'm aware of its much bigger address space, but what sort of here-and-now advantage is there to running it?

The greater address space means you never have to use NAT.

NAT is evil.
