I would have to agree there, too. I tried to dig up any info I could on
IPFire's website, and couldn't find anything besides that they're working on
(or have been for awhile) a new version that would include IPv6 support.
However, if it's taken this long.. who knows when it'll be released to the
public.

When you do re-visit, keep in mind what AI just told me (I also confirmed it
at openwrt.org, because !@#$ AI):

"Yes, OpenWrt can run on a PC, and it is designed for this purpose, especially
for the x86 architecture. You can install it on a hard drive or run it from a
USB drive or virtual machine, making it possible to turn a PC into a powerful
router or firewall."

Who knows, you may actually have fun with all this. ;)

Regards,
Nick
