Checking up the services, as when they made the above request
it didn't work either, they should be:
 - fully maintained
 - reliable
 - IPv6 accessible

$ host -t a www.ctn1.com
www.ctn1.com            A       195.140.143.10
$ host -t aaaa www.ctn1.com
www.ctn1.com AAAA record currently not present

Still not available, www.ctn1.net does have an IPv6 address though, but:

traceroute to www.ctn1.net (3ffe:4013:2105:1::5) from 2001:838:1:1:210:dcff:fe20:7c7c, 30 hops max, 16 byte packets

>From my traceroute manual:
!H     Received a reply telling that the destination host is unreachable.

Thus I have to assume that the host is directly connected to the "IX" ?
Otherwise we would have gotten a !N back telling that the network would
not be reachable.

As for ctn1.com:
8<-----------------------------------------------------
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.


- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apache/1.3.27 Server at www.ctn1.com Port 80
- ----------------------------------------------------->8

Also CTN1.net still shows "Your Web Hosting Company"

I still don't think that there are is a staff of three available
there who can fix these problems, if they could they would have
done that already when they got aware of the problem, note that
I cc'd there special 6bone@ctn1.net email address in the previous
message, so they should have become aware of it almost a week later.
They should have fixed it in the mean time too.
If they cannot even fix a simple combination of DNS and 'peering'
problems, then how could they be entrusted with anything else?

If they would wanted to change my mind on all of this they could
have at least fix the above simple problems and demonstrating
with that that they actually will be wanting to use it for the
purposes that the 6bone was meant for.

Greets,
 Jeroen
