Guess my English failed me - as long as there are "bugs" like this
Android one out there a IPv6 only network is a no-go.
In that respect, I think the experiment so far has succeded. It has
proven there is a showstopper for IPv6 only out there. Now we just
need to wait for a fix:)

agree :-)



... another thing that hit me, what about seeing if the BCOP effort
can help RIPE OPs to run the IPv6 only network? :)
