  Mon May 06 09:55:26 2013 MORITZ [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: HTTP regex does not match IPv6 addresses
Hi all, $ perl -MRegexp::Common=URI -wE 'say "http://[2001:780:101::2]/" =~ $RE{URI}{HTTP}' $ This is a perfectly fine URL, and should match. Cheers, Moritz

And rightly so. RFC 2396 explicitly says it IPv6 addresses are not supported: The host is a domain name of a network host, or its IPv4 address as a set of four decimal digit groups separated by ".". Literal IPv6 addresses are not supported.
