I don't know about the P2P as I don't use it but it very likely is
ready. Most apps just bind to what's there (Network Dev or any
available IPs) so long as the supporting libraries are capable. I
restarted exim and apache2 when I got my UnixCore tunnel up and they
started listening. (http://ipv6.rdlg.net) As per ssh:
root@vampire
{0}:/home/nomad>w
07:34:19 up 9:38, 5 users, load average: 0.03, 0.08, 0.08

ipv6.rdlg.net has AAAA address 2001:730:11::1:303

Mostly User acceptance and getting ISP's to pick it up.
