+## TODO
+
+* pairing over IPV6 only networks does not work. Haskell's
+ `network-multicast` library complains "inet_addr: Malformed address: ff02::1"
+ .. seems it just doesn't support IPv6. The pairing code in git-annex
+ does support ipv6, apart from this, it's just broadcasting the messages
+ that fails. (Pairing over mixed networks is fine.)
