The big deafening silence from SIXXS is really unfortunate in that it does actively affect my opinion of IPv6, my willingness to spend time implementing it, pestering my upstream about it, or having my business give a damn about it.  Yes I know they're volunteers, but how much does that matter?

I've had very prompt and good replies from SixXS when I've contacted them.

Equally students I know who use HE brokers are very happy with their service, e.g. HE have added features in response to feedback.
