 > Is there a separate ticket for using NETINFO cells correctly? If so, the
 code in the NETINFO that fetches my_appent_addr is IPv4-only.  (On the
 other hand, my_apparent_addr just isn't used.)

 There isn't, as far as i know. This branch is supposed to do that too.

 Right, I looked at this line in tor-spec.txt and just let it be as it
 was: "[As of 0.2.3.1-alpha, nodes use neither of these values.]"

 Want me to either remove the IPv4 address fetching, add IPv6 fetching
 or just keep ignoring it? Happy to do it either way.


 > When you talk about printing both addresses, do you mean in
 command_process_netinfo_cell() or somewhere else?

 I mean in command_process_netinfo_cell().
