This page will serve as a repository of information of information related to IPv6 and communications protocols based on IP, including voice-over-IP (VoIP), unified communications (UC). real-time communications (RTC) and the use of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).
(NOTE: Need to include reference here to how WebRTC is designed to work with IPv6.)

Communities
There is a good amount of discussion about IPv6 happening in various IPv6 communities around the Internet. More specific discussion about IPv6 and IP communications is happening here:
- SIP Forum IPv6 Task Group mailing list (open to the public)
- SIPv6 Facebook page and Twitter account (projects started by Olle Johansson)
Softphones
We are aware of the following softphones that support IPv6:

- Linphone (open source)
- Counterpath Bria (commercial)
Communications Equipment
Beyond softphones, we are aware of the following equipment that supports IPv6.
