%   I would like to ask, is there any progress in this issue? Delegation for
% 6bone address space is not there yet, and our users are already asking about
% that - we don't know what to tell them. Can we help in some way? Who we should
% ask why the delegation is not yet done?

%   Thanks in advance,

	RFC 3152 indicates that until the 6bone is subsumed by the
	RIRs that it will not show up in ip6.arpa.

	Bob Fink has had some discussion with the RIRs on what it will
	take to have the 6bone address assignments move from
	an engineering/development status to production/commercial
	status.  

	No word on the status of those discussions.
