I don't know what Kazu San said about it, but one of the main reasons
being that the roots will from 1/6/2006 nicely return NXDOMAIN and the
resolver code won't try any further. Indeed the application won't get a
reverse, but hell, they should upgrade then.

Too bad that the nice ip6.int private domain is going away for the
people running it though. But experimentation has to end at a certain
point, now lets go to production ;)

Greets,
