Hi Iljitsch,

| So what I'd like to do is put the final days (ok, years) of the 6bone 
| to good use, and simply start a public resolver service using 6bone 
| addresses. The idea is to use two addresses, that are then anycast, not 
| unlike what's happening with the IPv4 root DNS servers. Note that this 
| type of anycasting is different from regular IPv6 anycasting. Rather, 
| the address block that contains the address(es) in question is sourced 
| in BGP in different places at the same time. Anyone who wants to can 
| then run an anycast instance, either public or private, just as with 
| 6to4 relays.
I support this, and would be interrested in running an anycast node from
the AMS-IX/DE-CIX, providing you do the paperwork involved with prefix
allocation.

groet,
Pim
