Transmission 1.50 Released: with IPv6 support for peers, and for trackers with explicit IPv6 addresses

Cool: Transmission 1.50 has been released. To me, the most interesting part is "IPv6 support for peers, and for trackers with explicit IPv6 addresses".

Proof that it works: see the included screenshot of transmission connected to another IPv6 bittorrent peer, with happens to be a Vuze (formerly Azureus) 4.1.0.2 client.


Hooray! No more NAT problems thanks to IPv6! :-)

The same with me, IPv6 gives me better connectivity outside, my ISP offers only NAT access with IPv4 so IPv6 public address is really helpful :)

@Anonymous: what kind of IPv6 connectivity are you using? And which OS?
