> Would it be possible to add a Tag under "Network and Internet" called > "IPv6" to categorize Packages which support IPv6 ? Of course this is possible. I'll add it as soon as i'm back home and working on the vocabulary. It will take some time - till the reorganization and restructuring is done (until i've decided on the open questions i mentioned in the mail to d-devel) - until i will update the vocabulary in the webfrontend though. But there is a /big/ design question here: Should the tag be used for "ipv6-enabled" applications (that is applications that can be used with ipv6, like an ipv6-enabled mailclient, and which hopefully will be all applications soon) or should it be used for "ipv6-tools" only (that is applications to control ipv6, like routing applications, tunnels etc.) The same issue arises with "unicode": i made it clear in the title that this is to be used for unicode utilities, not for "application does understand what unicode is" or even "documentation is in unicode, not latin1" ;) There is a second issue with that: an application that does not have this ipv6-enabled tag, can either not work with ipv6, or was just not yet verified to work with ipv6. So we could use a no-ipv6-support tag, too... i'm not too happy with that kind of tags. Greetings, Erich
