% Uhh, the proposal at least to me looks unnecessarily complex. There is no
% need to tie the process to having IPv6 enabled nameservers, or (to a
% lesser degree) TSIG capabilities. Those items can be worked out, though,
% after the initial setup.

It won't take a year. And while it may have been required
crutch seven years ago, there is -zero- reason why one should
expect IPv6 data -not- be visable over IPv6 transport. Do you
want to tie IPv6 applications to reachability of an IPv4 service?
a gripe about the RIR proposal is that only one (APNIC) has been
fully committed to IPv6 and has had working v6 capable systems
online for years. RIPE has been sporadic in its support for
IPv6 capable systems. LATNIC has the expertise and some
transmission capability while ARIN does not seem to have
a working IPv6 support stratagy.
