Months ago, maybe even more than a year ago, I created a project
behind an IPv6-only connection (configured the webserver not to listen
on IPv4), and BOINC could connect to it and get work with no problems.
I still have the IPv6 tunnel, so I could try again. I believe
babel.boinc.povaddict.com.ar is already accessible via IPv6; and if
not, I'm simply missing a DNS entry.

IANA runs out of IPV4 addresses in less than a year. The first RIR,
which
will be APNIC, will run out of IPV4 addresses within 9 months of
that time.
That gives us a year to a year and a half to ensure that BOINC
actually
works with IPV6 as the transport.
IPV6 addresses are 4 times as wide as IPV4 addresses, so anyplace
that they
are stored may have to be widened. We should arrange for a test
project
that is set up for IPV6 only so that people can test against it.
Testers
are probably going to have to arrange for tunnels to reach the IPV6
only
project for a while as most ISPs do not support IPV6 yet (and
apparently
have no plans to support IPV6 any time soon).
