Does the WAN group have a separate meeting and/or list? I'm wondering if there is any interest in discussing IPv6 support for Lustre, since (IMHO) WAN is the main place where this will become necessary. Most other sites use Lustre only on their intranet, and can easily handle this with internal subnets in the 192.168.*.* or 10.*.*.* IPv4 networks.
