Holger,
 
Good question, but I don't know the answer. 
Perhaps someone directly involved in the planning for IPMI spec updates
can answer.
Try  http://www.intel.com/design/servers/ipmi/feedback.htm

Andy,

        IPMI is for server platforms, and has tremendous momentum and
support across the industry.  IPMI supports more server features than
AMT.  IPMI is a strategic standard for Intel.  Intel server customers
would go elsewhere if we moved from IPMI to AMT.  There are no near-term
plans for an IPMI 3.0.  Intel will continue to ship IPMI BMCs
indefinitely on all server platforms.
        See http://telcoserv.so.intel.com/mgt/ipmifunc.htm
<http://telcoserv.so.intel.com/mgt/ipmifunc.htm>  for an overview of
IPMI functions.
        
        [Liebig, Holger] Thanks for sharing. Are there any plans to
extend/update IPMI to IPv6?
         
        Thanks,
        Holger
