Hello!

Apologies if this is covered somewhere I haven't noticed, but is IPv6 support on the roadmap for PythonAnywhere at all?

I'm mainly talking about accessing sites hosted on PA over IPv6, but some other things would be nice too (giving each console its own IPv6 address might be going a bit far, but it's a nice thought!).

And because I can't think of IPv6 without a certain song from RIPE55 being paged into my brain, here's a link for you... :)

Awesome song :-)

PythonAnywhere runs on top of Amazon AWS and they don't support IPv6 yet (apart from for their Elastic Load Balancers, which we don't use). They don't seem to have an ETA for supporting it, but they say they are working on it.

That sounds disturbingly close to a "let's shove our heads in the sand and hope that ARIN or the RIRs magic some more addresses out of a hat" response from Amazon...

Thanks for the info! :)
