Meh, I just noticed that my mail below never got to the list, because I wasn't fully subscribed before I hit send (and apparently it got lost in the moderation queue).
See my comments below ... out of curiosity, I assume it is now too late to get this in place for F13 due to the infrastructure freeze, even if you were to use an external (i.e. my) IPv6 tracker?

Hi Matt,
We do have a Xen host and several VMs on native IPv6 hosted at ibiblio.org, which is where we would want to run such a tracker ourselves if possible. The goal was to run the opentracker-v6 in parallel with the existing bittorrent-based tracker.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/IPv6 notes our v6 infrastructure.
Ah, no clue how I missed that. You even have AAAA records for the main website :-\
The problem wasn't just that statistics were unavailable (which would be a problem - we like having some counts of download methods), but that even retrieving them via http would crash the tracker. :-(
Weird, the tracker I run is of course far from having the load of the official Fedora tracker, but it did not crash once for me in the last seven weeks. Fresh CVS checkout of libowfat and opentracker as of Dec 27th, compiled and running on an amd64 Debian (*hide*) VM. I poll the statistics with HTTP every minute and it has ~300 peers connected to it.
I looked into Azureus briefly, but IIRC it's java-based? We don't have any java in our infra environment right now. That doesn't mean we couldn't add it, but most FI maintainers aren't java experts. I haven't looked into BitTornado.
Yes, it's Java based and even requires X (as far as I know). And I would not really recommend BitTornado, it's extremely old and doesn't even expire peer entries correctly as far as I could see.
Thank you for your offer to host though - that's something we can consider. The infrastructure list (copied) is the right place for this discussion.
Subscribing now ...

transmission-cli and transmission-daemon do IPv6 quite well...

This was about trackers, I don't think Transmission includes a BitTorrent tracker.
Transmission does IPv6 client pretty well indeed (it does not do v6 to the tracker at the moment, but it can learn v6 peers with PEX and DHT).
