Also the LUV server has had IPv6 enabled for a while and I have already noticed problems for one user. A member of this list has their mail server configured to do callbacks but is not correctly configured for IPv6. So they have been rejecting mail from the LUV list because their anti-spam measure isn't working with any site that advertises an AAAA record. One could argue that I should remove AAAA records to deal with that sort of problem (and all the other IPv6 problems that people might have). But I think that IPv6 is necessary and inevitable. Implementing it on the LUV server is a service for LUV members as it provides an IPv6 test bed and I sent a personal email to the person with the mailing list problem explaining it to them so they can fix their issue - they will never get email from a Google sysadmin about problems talking to Google Groups.
I agree, IPv6 is here, and it's not LUV's job to make their servers work with broken IPv6 systems. It's up to those with broken systems to fix them.
I don't know if the LUV site even works on Windows XP. There are many potential ways in which it might break and I never test with Windows. If someone on this list would like to test the site with various versions of Windows I'd be interested to see the results. I won't commit to fixing such issues but we can definitely have a discussion about the pros and cons of various configuration options.
I've only tried on Windows 7 (with Firefox), and it seemed to work fine.
