Good point Henry. IPv6 support is long overdue. We are trying to release
2.5 it ASAP in order to facilitate the transition from Subversion to Git.
IPv6 is a substantial change and doesn't fit this time frame. I think it
should definitely be considered for the next major release.
Regarding this particular issue, I removed the 2.5 tag yesterday. It was
inappropriately tagged 2.5 last November since there was no discussion
regarding which release it should be included in.
Once 2.5 is released, I'll start a 2.6 roadmap planning thread. (We should
have done this for 2.5 but the ball was dropped.) There shouldn't be any
issues tagged for future releases at this point. The dev community will
decide which issues to tag as 2.6 and we can hopefully come up with a
reasonable plan. The roadmap thread will be the ideal opportunity for
everyone from committers to lurkers to have an impact on the future of VCL
development. Arguments supporting IPv6 should certainly be presented.

Several weeks ago ARIN gave out its last IPv4 addresses (I was told by a
reliable source.) There still some blocks becoming available for various
reasons and there is a marketplace for buying/selling unused blocks.
But it looks as if we are coming much closer to needing to move to IPv6.
