What I recall from the ICANN Lisbon meeting (end of March), after the SSAC and RSSAC recommendations, is that a plan is being worked out with the root operators in order to make sure that they have the deployment done and then the hints file is modified. I believe this will not take too much time (just a few months ?), if folks are interested I can probably investigate about the concrete timing. Today the ICANN board also approved a new resolution about IPv6, which I just posted here: http://www.ipv6tf.org/index.php?page=news/newsroom&id=3052 Regards, Jordi > De: Edward Lewis <[email protected]> > Responder a: <[email protected]> > Fecha: Fri, 29 Jun 2007 15:43:45 -0400 > Para: <[email protected]> > CC: <[email protected]> > Asunto: Re: ICANN registrar supporting v6 glue? > > > At 9:23 -0700 6/29/07, Barrett Lyon wrote: > >> I would like to support v6 so a native v6 only user can still communicate >> with my network, dns and all, apparently in practice that is not easy to >> do, which is somewhat ironic given all of the v6 push lately.
