   The setup of my network makes it more likely that I could become temporarily   
   IPv6 only (incoming and outgoing), because my BBS IPv4 addresses come via an   
   OpenVPN tunnel, while IPv6 is native.  So IPv6 outgoing only can be useful for   
   getting in contact with me if things break.  Same for incoming only, because I   
   would lost all IPv6 connectivity in this situation.
