Would anyone object if I amended the PackageReviewGuidelines to include

MUST: If IPv4 networking is supported, but for some reason the 'SHOULD
support IPv6' documented elsewhere is not obeyed, a bug must be opened
which should block the IPv6 tracker bug, and should contain a full
justification for the lack.
requiring functionality in software is not part of the requirements for
PACKAGING the software.
Keep in mind the "MUST" proposal is only to *document* (via bugzilla)
IPv6 deficiency. Personally, I consider this a good thing.
