One of the root servers not being available everywhere seems like a pretty
lousy idea :)
On another note- are there any folks on the list who haven't at least
started testing v6- either in a lab or on their home network? Is there a
particular reason why?
Does anyone have any horror stories about deploying v6? (Aside from
problems with tunnels resulting from A and AAAA records for the same
host). With rare exceptions every transition I've read about has been
pretty painless.
There seems to be so much resistance to v6 and a lot of it seems to be
misunderstanding or misinformation regarding the complexity of the
changes.
