 > I've made some progress with IPv6.  The first time a node is brought up
 it listens on both IPv4 and IPv6.  I still have to figure out many side
 cases and test what is best when there is only IPv6, only IPv4, or both.
 It also needs to set the port correctly in the furl file after it is first
 run so that it listens to the correct protocol on the next runs.  It's
 still communicating over IPv6!

 Yay!

 Re: [attachment:32.png the screenshot], the "Connected?" column should
 probably show IPv6 addresses in the same format they appear in furls.

 Excellent.
