Hello Doug, Charles, LDP,
I've been working with Peter on the IPv6 HOWTO for a little
while now.
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Linux+IPv6-HOWTO/credits.html
Ultimately, standard v6 setup, connectivity, forwarding, etc.
should be handled by his HOWTO. Peter is very receptive to
ideas, etc. so I would contact him about this.
Now, if you are talking about 6to4, NATing, etc., that
would come under the IPMASQ howto. Do you have any
specific ideas? Please remember that I don't want to
get involved with enabling 6Bone connectivity, etc.
Again, that would be for Peter's HOWTO.

Doug, take a look at the IP Masquerading HOWTO. See if you aren't
duplicating anything there. If not, I suspect David Ranch would be
glad to see what you have to add.
