A bit more info for those that are interested, here's a post I made to the dev list a while ago:

We're now official participants of world ipv6 day. Should be able to see us listed at:

http://isoc.org/wp/worldipv6day/participants/
All servers on TheHavenNet (Saratoga, Promethius, Nostromo and Destiny) have been running with ipv6 enabled for a few months now (since mid march). This means that you are able to browse any of THN's sites using either ipv6 or ipv4.

There's a deferent link to the above for all participants:
http://www.worldipv6day.org/participants/index.html
Check out whether your favourite web-site(s) have signed up.

The link for ipv6 day (today) is:
http://www.worldipv6day.org/

If you want to see whether you current network connection is ipv6 enabled then visit this link:
http://test-ipv6.com/

I signed us up because I wanted to test out ipv6 myself on my own kit (as well as a little shameless promotion for the awesomeness that is us). And hopefully this will help give some ISP's and co-location centre's the impetus they need to start making ipv6 more widely available to customers so we can start to leave the aging ipv4 behind.

Happy ipv6'ing!
Haven.

Here's mine from home, currently routing ipv6 via a HENet tunnel as my ISP doesn't support it natively.

I used to have ipv6 tunneled at home back in 07, but nothing much else had it, so i gave up with it .....

Few years too early!
