ipv6 #286

Closed neko259 closed 8 years ago

neko259 commented 11 years ago

Please implement ipv6 support so that bitmessage could run in hypeboria or other v6-only networks.

PyBitmessage supports IPv6 just fine — at least on Linux — but may need some IPv6 seeds in order to get things going. I added a

stream1[shared.Peer(myipv6address, 8444)] = int(time.time())

to defaultKnownNodes.py in order to broadcast my box's IPv6 address and now PyBitmessage regularly has IPv6 peers (I'm on a dual stack — tristack if you count Hyperboria — machine).
