[tor-relays] Questions about relays on IPv6

[tschador@xxxxxxxxx]

Hello,

I have enabled IPv6 on my Relay [1] and setup a new one [2].
Both got the additional Flag 'ReachableIPv6' - fine.

In the 'IPv6 HOWTO' [3] I found:

"Since clients only use the ORPort (because it's more anonymous2), and
relays only use IPv4, there is no reason to configure an IPv6 DirPort -
if you do, it will never be used."

Hmm - 'relays only use IPv4' seems to be true. Until now I can see only
incoming connections from the authorities; no other IPv6 and no outgoing
IPv6 connection while on [1] there are over 6800 und on [2] over 4800
IPv4 connections!

So I wonder: Does it make sense to setup IPv6 non-exit relays when IPv6
is not used? Or must I wait patiently - how long?

Thanks.
