Tell HN: Hacker News now supports IPv6

My browser just started connecting to Hacker News over IPv6 today:

  $ host news.ycombinator.com
  news.ycombinator.com has address 209.216.230.207
  news.ycombinator.com has IPv6 address 2606:7100:1:67::26

The raw IP address correctly redirects to HN: http://[2606:7100:1:67::26]

Good job so far! Please don't pull a Reddit and turn it off again.
