Hi, Jeroen.

Yes, since RRP 2.0 (the protocol used by ICANN-accredited registrars
to register com/net domains with VeriSign Global Registry Services)
was deployed in mid-May, 2002. Since the registrars are the customers
of VeriSign GRS, we communicated this new feature to them directly and
not to the general public. (Although researching this topic has made
it clear to me that we've got to get something about it on our web
site, which I'm working on.) It appears that the registrars have not
widely publicized the availability of this feature. Also, not all
registrars support registration of AAAA records. For example, the
Network Solutions registrar does not, but PSI Japan and eNom do.
That's definitely not a complete list: those are the only registrars
that I have definitive information on. The only way to know for sure
about your registrar is to ask them.
Please let me know if I can be answer any other questions or otherwise
help you out.
Kind regards,
Matt
