% I don't mind that at all, I'd rather see them sticking AAAA's

	they are, for the production service.
	this is for experimental activities.

% 2001:7fe::/32 is for I-rootserver-net-20030916 got assigned on
% 2003-09-16 and was to be seen since 2003-09-17 02:51:14.
% This "new" 6bone can be seen since yesterday, thus there is to
% wonder for what purpose. There is no difference between 6bone
% and RIR space, unless they want to make a sign that the
% '6bone is not production'...

	bing!  the 3ffe:: entries are for experimental services -only-
	while the 2001:: will eventually be production services.
	and the test are -not- primarly about connectivity.

% Also these are the current paths:
% 
% 3ffe:3::/32   8447 1853 786 109 109 4555 29216  IGP 
% 3ffe:3::/32   1213 3549 6939 109 4555 29216  IGP

% 3ffe:3::/32 > 6939 109 4555 29216  IGP 
% 
% 2001:7fe::/32 has the same "issue":
% 2001:7fe::/32 8954 4555 29216
% 2001:7fe::/32 12779 6175 4555 29216

% As Cisco (109) and EP.Net are US based I wonder if
% Stockholm suddenly moved to the US :)
% That last one as from "Stockholm" -> US -> Japan -> Denmark...
% If they really want to test then use some native european
% connectivity, there is a *lot* of that over here.
% And if they can't get native, please tunnel to a *local*
% ISP and not to something in the US, see "Minimal IPv6 Peering":
% http://ip6.de.easynet.net/ipv6-minimum-peering.txt
% 
% K has a RIPE delegation too, but that has not been seen (yet :)
% But I heared good stories about work being done on that.
