I guess the
more pertinent questions I have for Brian would be:
Are there a plan so that folks who only have IPv6 commercial address
or are suck behind carrier grade IPv4 with no firewall access (some
cellular carriers presently) can participate with the amprnet? In
other words are there plans to make amprgw dual stack?
(I think you meant 'stuck', not 'suck'. Is that a Freudian slip?)
There's no plan to make amprgw dual stack. I'm not sure that the question
is meaningful; what would it DO with an incoming IPv6-only packet?
It's not going to be a NAT64 gateway, that's for certain.
Okay, its just something I have been wondering. I feel as commercial
IPv4 addresses become more scarce, and more carrier grade NAT comes
into play there will be more hams looking for solutions for the
various internet ham radio services (IRLP, Echolink, D-Star etc),
where they need the ability to control their port forwarding/firewall
stuff. Basically I see a large number of folks seeking commercial VPN
services.
Interoperability of IPv4-only and IPv6-only hosts is a sticky wicket
that in my opinion NO ONE has solved satisfactorily.

I am slowing learning what a complicated mess it is (going to be) myself.
