It is indeed and the only APNIC IPv6 assignment so far.  Congratulations ;)

On a related note, APNIC is also putting the reverse delegations for IPv4
and IPv6 as the matching in-addr.arpa and ip6.int domain objects into the
APNIC whois database and generating the appropriate zone files daily.

	ie: whois -h whois.apnic.net 0.0.0.2.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.int

As IPv6 is relatively new, does anyone have comments on how to manage IPv6
reverse delegations?  Bear in mind that a human editing the zone files is
*not* an option ;) .
