As commented earlier on this list... https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2013-August/005286.html This addressing change will break onioncat (IPv6) within Tor. https://www.onioncat.org/ I suggest a solution to transporting IPv6 within Tor be maintained/deployed concurrently with any change in current onion addressing and or transport mechanics. _______________________________________________ tor-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-dev
