Dear Colleagues

In August 2005, the IETF published RFC 4159: 'Deprecation of "ip6.int"', as a Best Current Practice document. The RFC noted that maintenance of "ip6.int" is no longer needed and called on the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) to decide when to stop providing support for the domain. The RIRs have jointly agreed to do this on 1 June 2006.

... and there was much rejoicing. :)

now if the IETF & the RIRs could just get rid of all that deployed resolver code that looks for ip6.int by fiat. --bill
