I do not understand your comment.
By the way, OSPF for IPv6 == OSPFv3.

I did not mention I-ISIS in my note (I was discussing integrated routing for
OSPFv3), though I do find your comments interesting in the context of the
Digital entry on the IPng web site, thinking particularly where it says
(quoted directly):
"In addition, Digital intends to implement IPv6 in the
Integrated IS-IS routing protocol to allow an integrated approach
to routing of IPv4, IPv6, DECnet and OSI."
