Kinda out there since afaik HE is the only DC that provides native transport, but maybe that'll just be a perk ;) ;) ;) ;)

I currently use 6to4, but would like native IPv6. It would be nice if they could get IPv6 connectivity.

Yes, native IPv6 would be a great feature that I'd love to have.

I use the HE tunnelbroker and it works well but native IPv6 would be better.

For those that haven't seen it yet, Hurricane Electric setup a new tunnel server in Dallas a couple of weeks ago. Not sure where their datacenter is located, but from my Dallas Linode it's 1ms or less latency. Also, based on a recent forum post at HE they are allowing IRC through the tunnel servers unless it starts getting abused.

Looks like Hurricane Electric electric is really promoting use of IPv6:

Native IPv6 support would be fantastic. I actually looked for an IPv6 VPS provider before choosing Linode and chose Linode only after I couldn't find a provider that offered IPv6 natively.

Why would native ipv6 be great...seriously....besides the geek factor? Practically no eyeball networks are actually using ipv6.

IPv6 in beta now will mean we understand it when we actually need it - as well :wink:
