Subject: Proper NetPacket IPv6 Support
I would love to see proper v6 support in mainline NetPacket for Layer 3, instead of L2 Ethernet only. The nice folks over at http://www.packetmischief.ca/code/netpacket/ have a patch for 0.41.1 that many folks use today (attached), but it conflicts with CPAN forklifts and distrib installs making it harder to work with en-mass. Thanks!

Patch applied to the ipv6 branch at http://github.com/yanick/netpacket/tree/ipv6. I'll try to churn out a release out of it soonishly. Thanks! `/anick
