Part of the problem might be that two of the bigger registrars (Webnames =
and easyDNS) *still* can't handle input of IPv6 addresses in their =
management panels - you have to initiate a support request and have them =
enter the records manually. And neither ca do a zone transfer from an =
IPv6-only master.
I tried a little experiment a couple of months back. I set up a new =
domain, IPv6 only - not an A record in sight, including for the name =
servers. I then tried getting the name servers and glue records =
registered, first through Webnames, then through easyDNS. Both required =
manual intervention to set this up.
I then tried using their secondary DNS services to add them as =
additional slave servers. Neither of them is capable of providing =
secondary DNS to an IPv6-only domain. In both cases, they can only =
initiate an xfer against an IPv4 master.
Given the current state of affairs with the registrar infrastructure, it =
doesn't surprise me one bit those numbers are so low.
