On the subject of ipv6, is there currently any way to multi-home with IPv6 yet?
There has always been a way to multihome in IPv6.  Announce
a prefix to two or more providers.  As with IPv4, YMMV.

There is a proposal to allow direct IPv6 end site assignments
that will be considered at the upcoming ARIN meeting:

Note that it has been revised since the previous
ARIN meeting.  The size for qualifying is still being
debated and I hope that anyone interested in this
topic will make their views known on the ARIN ppml
list or at the meeting.
