[arch-mirrors] Hacking & Coffee IPv6 Support
The Hacking & Coffee Mirrors have enabled IPv6 support. The hostname information is still the same. mirror.hackingand.coffee It can be tested as IPv6 only with mirror6.hackingand.coffee; this hostname only has a DNS AAAA entry. https://www.archlinux.org/mirrors/hackingand.coffee/ Cheers, ~H

We test v4 and v6 for each URL already. Adding the v6 URL would only clutter our mirror list so I'd rather not have it in there. It doesn't really provide much additional value to our users. Thanks for providing IPv6 though. Always good to see people supporting it. Florian
The address is purely for ease of testing if it had to be checked before enabling; no need to clutter the dash. This went out to all of the mirror lists that I support, not all of which enable IPv6 by default even if an AAAA record exists.
