    He has since reversed that stance and they are working on IPV6 support,
at least that is what I read somewhere.  I don¹t blame the guy really.  If
people want a feature they should pony up a little money.  Otherwise it is
free software with no implied support.

I used to use IPplan, but the author was dead set against IPv6 support:

"One feature request that comes up from time to time is IPv6. Adding
IPv6 support will require major effort but has such a limited audience.
Ironically the only people that ever requested IPv6 support are either
from Telcos, ISP's or government departments, yet they are never
interested in contributing resources! I deam them parasites of the Open
Source world - leaching off the good will and effort of the Open Source
community, yet give nothing in return."

This has since been removed from the site, but it gave me a good idea
about how the author felt about IPv6 so I stopped using it. I ended up
moving to HaCi and it's suited my needs.
