now if the IETF & the RIRs could just get rid of all that deployed resolver code that looks for ip6.int by fiat.
actually, i think it was kazu yamamoto who just gave a good analysis of why this is really not going to cause significant issues.
I don't know what Kazu San said about it, but one of the main reasons being that the roots will from 1/6/2006 nicely return NXDOMAIN and the resolver code won't try any further. Indeed the application won't get a reverse, but hell, they should upgrade then. Too bad that the nice ip6.int private domain is going away for the people running it though. But experimentation has to end at a certain point, now lets go to production ;) Greets, Jeroen
