[dns-wg] v6 ns/glue naming bcp

I'm not sure about the actual status, but Cisco demonstrated it at the last US Summit. See
http://newsroom.cisco.com/dlls/prod_062403c.html.

May be is still not commercial, but sure you can get a release from the Cisco people, just to try ?

Regards,
Jordi

We could make a rather stupid assumption that 85% of the queriers
you see request AAAA and then the A record. Thus that the installed
base supporting IPv6 is really growing. Sounds like a good thing.

Haha, hmm people where indeed complaining about PIX's at RIPE46 :)
Btw, when is a PIX going to do IPv6, I once heared "March 2003"
but I queried a university where they wanted to do IPv6 but due
to policy stuff were not allowed as their PIX didn't filter IPv6
that it still did not support it :(

Greets,
