I guess we have different definitions for "most significant  
backbones".  Unless you mean they have a dual-stack router running  
_somewhere_, say, for instance, at a single IX or a lab LAN or  
something.  Which is not particularly useful if we are talking about  
a "significant backbone".

That said, I certainly don't think content is doing well either.  Nor  
am I trying to say which is at fault.  In fact, not even sure I care  
who is at fault, if fault can even be apportioned.

P.S. Don't suppose people could change the subject when, well, the  
subject changes?
