+In our last article, published in RIPE's website, (https://labs.ripe.net/Members/tor_grants/a-look-into-the-tor-network-work-on-supporting-ipv6) we described the work that happened in 2020 related to giving IPv6 support (https://blog.torproject.org/ipv6-future-i-hear) to the Tor network.
+
+Tor 0.4.5.1-alpha (https://blog.torproject.org/node/1949) is the first release that includes all the work described in the RIPE article. Relays running 0.4.5.1-alpha are the first to report IPv6 bandwidth statistics.
