[libvirt] ipv6 related filtering through libvirt interfaces

[R P Herrold]

Looking mid page at:
 	http://libvirt.org/formatnwfilter.html#nwfelemsReservedVars
I see that there are some un-implemented filtering variables 
for IPv6.  Conspicuously absent is a variable set for the 
content handed out by radvd.  The changes back at 0.8.0 [Apr 
12 2010] seem to be the last time this area was touched

[ The interaction of the dhcpd, a dhcp6d, and the radvd as to 
DNS server assignment is also on the horizon with the roll in 
of the systemd ]

I used the search tool to look for a current 'ROADMAP' without 
getting meaningful results; The 'TODO' page is empty [1]; the 
patch queue page seems unmaintained [2]. I cannot find a 
'roadmap' posting in my archive this year ;(

With the exhaustion of 'easy' ipv4 space allocations, we are 
turning to deploying ipv6 only VM's, but finding that we are 
manually maintaining filtering rule sets, rather than handing 
them out in the XML configs

Is there movement in this space 'behind the scenes'?

Thank you
