[6bone] Getting ISPs to use IPv6

[Trent Lloyd]

We have a local internet exchange in Perth called "WAIX" and i am hoping to 
get some ipv6 transport happening over that
The founder/guy who runs it has expressed interest but naturally he is a 
busy man and since not that many people are into it i guess its not high on 
his to-do list

My local uni has connected through aarnet, and you can get a 'tunnel' from 
6bone@progsoc.org.au (email) who come of [i forget]

As you said, the 4 TLA owners there are unlikely to do much - a shame.

Is it possible for a 'group' to get a TLA?
maybe an informal associated of people from random ISPs and just people got 
together and got a TLA which they could do stuff with?
I'd be interested.
