Indeed, the soone the better.

One note howeever about ip6.int. Is ip6.int being phased at
the same time as the 6bone (6/6/2006) or is there a earlier
phaseout time thus forcing administrators and implementors
to have their software fully ip6.arpa aware as endusers will
start noticing that reverses are not available under ip6.int?
For instance, if this system is implemented before the summer
starts (july 2003) and systems are running cleanly, we could
opt to deprecate ip6.int completely per december 2003.
