In previous emails to this list I've outlined the necessary changes to support IPv6. Unless someone is sitting on a cache of unreleased code, none of these have yet been implemented.
In addition, IPv6 will require new VL RPCs. OpenAFS has committed to using the afs3-stds process for this RPC set. So, consensus would have to be achieved on a draft documenting IPv6 capable RPCs before any code changes implementing them can be merged. To date, no draft exists.
