You mean the IPv6 Ready Logo program? (http://www.ipv6ready.org/)


Pure FreeBSD hasn't received either Logo yet, but KAME on FreeBSD5
(most of them has already been merged to 6-Stable) has received
Silver(Phase 1) and Gold(Phase2) logo as a host and a router.

Judging from my experience in this logo acquisition work, here's the
expected IPv6 implementation status regarding -current and 6-stable.

[Silver Logo]
you can get the logo for host and router (all you have to do is to
submit the log of the required testings to the logo committee).

[Gold Logo]
you can get the logo for router, but cannot for host.  It is due to a
lack of the following patch, which is necessary to pass the gold logo
testing (but not merged, since it still needs some refinement
(i.e. handling against an I/F address with /128 prefixlen, too generic
function name).
