IP

.... is it already considered to be able to save IPv6 entries in JForum's table?

Currently there was errors thrown whenever a user with an IPv6 entered the board (entry of IP is written to jforum_users table). I had to enlarge the table manually ... so that the IP was allowed to be written to the database.

How big should the field be?

I've made it a varchar(56) ... worked fine so far for me so far ... but with a varchar(100) you'd always be on the safe site ;)

As a note: the length is about 54 or 56 byte long as far as I've seen. Not sure if the colons are already included in this case.
