Not any immediate plans. Decent amount of development is necessary there. There are so many places in our various systems that work with IP addresses, and many of them don't support v6 addresses.

One thing that places do is support IPv6 on the outside and translate to IPv4 calls in the next hop beyond the servers that sit beyond the edge.
