How is the status of IPsec for IPv6?

We've almost done.

One thing that I'll contribute before the feature freeze is:
- Privacy Extensions for IPv6 addrconf

The remaining things which we DO want to see in 2.6 are:
- check is "rmmod ipv6" is ok
- IPv6 source address selection; which will be mandated by the
node requirement.
- IPsec for IPv6
- make IPv6 non-experimental :-)
- several enhancements on specification conformity
(neighbour discovery etc.)

Thanks.
