Sad indeed.
What I find even more sad is that Fidonet seems to have lost its pioneer spirit. The number of IPv6 nodes in Fidonet has been hovering around 80 for the last year. It is no longer growing. Some come, some go.
Those that are supposed to lead by example and help in "Encouraging new technologies in Fidonet software development" are letting us down.
Of the 14 FTSC members only 5 support IPv6 one way or another.
Of the 4 ZCs, one support Ipv6 outgoing only, another one supports incoming only. So one out of four efectively.
Of 31 RCs 5 support IPv6.
I have come across sysops who's provider offers IPv6 but they refuse to make use of it. IPv6 is too fat and too complicated and it is not needed they say. :(
