It would be nice to have IPv6 support in slrn as it is rather easy to add. Please take a look at patch: http://cvs.pld.org.pl/SOURCES/slrn-ipv6.patch I've used an earlier version of it (+patches now incorporated) as a basis for SRPM's. One would need to add '--enable-ipv6' to %configure and regenerate 'configure'.
slrn 0.9.8.0 is out since 2003-08-25 which includes IPv6 support. Rawhide is still at 0.9.7.4.
slrn-0.9.8.1 is in rawhide now. Thanks for the announce.
