Hi,

This is mine - you can find the code, just recently moved, at:

http://code.lupine.me.uk/projects/luasocket

I didn't do any further work beyond what's there because (a), I don't
know Lua particularly well, (b) I don't know C particularly well, (c) I
dislike sockets programming, and (d) I'm lazy ;)

That said, as far as the code goes, it does work - you can explicitly
request an IPv6 socket and talk over it. I'd not like to see it shipped
by anyone though, and I don't think the API approach is right
(explicitly requesting AF_INET or AF_INET6). The changes to inet_trybind
are particularly hairy.

Oh, it doesn't do Windows either. Although that's not an issue for
Debian, I guess... ;)

If anybody wants to hg clone the repository, I'm happy to get a hgweb
instance running from it - just let me know. I'd love to see luasocket
get IPv6 (by which, I mean, I'd love to see Prosody get IPv6), but I
just don't think I'm the one to do it.

Regards,
