Folks,
My company, Dartware, have derived a regex for testing whether an IPv6 address
is correct. I've posted it in my blog:
http://intermapper.ning.com/profiles/blogs/a-regular-expression-for-ipv6
This has links to the regular expression, a (Perl) program that tests various
correct and malformed addresses, and a Ruby implementation of the same.
Hope it's useful.
