@DJMcKenzie87

PN are working on it. Until now, cost has been a major consideration - it is not cheap to install and run as you also need to continue running IPV4 servers. Plus the need to integrate it with all PN systems.

They were hoping to have it up and running by the end of 2025 as per the following presentation but I believe the initial test (of one person) failed.
