I can't come up with a necessary interface change at the moment.
So far I've never tried to use some of the "advanced features" of IPv6
like anycast or multicast reception (mind that there is no broadcast
support in IPv6). I can imagine that we need some new interfaces for
those, but not for "plain" IPv6.
As for the next weeks I'll somewhat concentrate on routing and maybe
OpenVPN support, but we'll see :-)
cheers,
