I checked with our technical team apparently this is non trivial for the mirrored, load balancing setup we have with AWS for the publications server. |
|
|
As such we have no plans to make changes to our infrastructure at this time. |

It’s 2025, not 1995. I’ve been using IPv6 in production for way over two decades… |

It's important that *applications* support both IPv4 and IPv6. Since the specification is accessible via IPv4, it's accessible to everyone who supports both IPv4 and IPv6. It'd be nice if both were supported, sure, but since that's non-trivial, I think it's fine. This site is in good company; according to https://www.ipxo.com/blog/ipv6-adoption/ only 24.9% of websites are accessible via IPv6. I recommend closing this issue as "won't fix" due to the non-trivial effort & the lack of need (people can just use IPv4 instead). |
