tthew and others out there... What content do you think Google has or any o=
ther big content provider that is IPV6 only or gives an IPV6 only response =
to a query from Cogent that would not work
via normal IPV4 routes and IP's.. Till we have exclusive content on
IPV6 or it is a shorter,
it's not relevant (really) that 'you can still get there over v4',
because if your clients have ipv6, they'll ask for both, not
everything happy-eyeballs it's way to success, so
timeouts/frustration/pain occur.
I bet that's where the OP's original questions stem.
