Ignoring the possible sarcasm ;-)...

1) The UltraDNS nameserver does fully support IPv6.

$ host -t aaaa ipv6-gw.juniper.net udns1.ultradns.net
Using domain server:
Name: udns1.ultradns.net
Address: 204.69.234.1#53
Aliases: 

ipv6-gw.juniper.net has AAAA address 3ffe:28ff:9::1

2) As far as TLD IPv6 records, this question would have to be
referred to the TLD registry operator. If they allow it, we support
it. I am not aware of any of the tlds that we are authoritative for
actually inserting any domain records with IPv6 data, but I could be
wrong.

3) We're working on a native IPv6 feed to all of our nodes, and would
hope to have this live and active before the end of this year.
Anycast creates an additional challenge for us in deploying IPv6.

I hope that answers your questions.
