Not sure it is a catch22 anymore. Are a group of sTLA people in
Europe that have seen the point and also found out that unless
they do something with the routing to get much closer to production
quality there are no way to make money on IPv6 (key word: money)

Not all of 6bone are bad, those few that have a network and just
let it keep running without looking much after it...not to forget some
people that many sTLA holders don't trust at all.
