Although I am no maintainer yet (application pending since a year), I would be
interested in maintaining some of the IPv6 patched packages. At the moment I am
building firewall that should already support IPv6, so I have some experience
with IPv6 patches on Debian systems.

Please contact me when the repository is ready. Can we have some easy way for
non-maintainers to upload their packages ?

And please, take away the other 3 IPv6 repositories that are all apt-able (2 on
www.debian.org and 1 on chiharu.v6.linux.or.jp) after ftp.ipv6.nl has all of the
packages on it (maybe with newer versions).

best greets,
Rene
