All new versions (5.x AFAIR) work well, I think I demonstrated it on
the last meeting ;)

Marco, Nick - what do you think? I definitely see a lot of interest
and support in the community for moving IPv6-only
network out of the experimental state. Probably moving dual-stack
network to legacy this meeting might be bit extreme (we do care about
people who do not care about Ipv6 yet, don't we? ;)) and we do not
provide bad network experience), but what about stop calling it
"experimental" and include it in the list of the standard SSIDs?
