We would also appreciate comments on issues that are important to the IPv6 community with regards to IPv6 deployment.
Ask whether they receive IPv6 transit from their upstream providers. If not, then whether they've asked for it, and what the status is. (<== most important thing!) Also ask, whether the 6bone-type prefix length filters are being used to their upstreams. Also ask, whether the members use 6bone connectivity for transit service, and if so, when/if they intend to discontinue it. Also ask, whether they provide transit service to non-customers (e.g. 6bone) and when/if they intend to discontinue it. Also ask, whether they've piloted IPv6 services alongside with IPv4 (example: www.foo.com having both A and AAAA records), and if yes/no, experiences about that. I believe these are some issues that are particularly interesting when considering long-term IPv6 deployment. -- Pekka Savola "You each name yourselves king, yet the Netcore Oy kingdom bleeds."
