Hi,

We are implementing a database for maintaining our IP addresses. Looking
in the current documentation, it seems that INET/CIDR types only support
IPv4 addresses until now, although
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2001-09/msg00236.php
seems to suggest a patch for IPv6 has been ready for some time now.

What is the status of IPv6 types at this moment?
