There has always been a way to multihome in IPv6. Announce
a prefix to two or more providers. As with IPv4, YMMV.
There is a proposal to allow direct IPv6 end site assignments
that will be considered at the upcoming ARIN meeting:
http://www.arin.net/policy/proposals/2005_1.html
Note that it has been revised since the previous
ARIN meeting. The size for qualifying is still being
debated and I hope that anyone interested in this
topic will make their views known on the ARIN ppml
list or at the meeting.
