Which one would that be?  I can't find any particular RFC, or actual
standards-related document about A6. I certainly know about DNAME, but I
can't find any document on that either at the moment.  As far as I knew,
A6 wasn't shelved, only DNAME. I can understand DNAME, but not A6. A6
can be incredibly useful, and it's does /not/ pose as many problems as
people think it does (at least, problems that aren't easily solved).
