| Prior to 4 Feb, quite a few of the root servers had listed IPv6 addresses (see http://www.root-servers.org). I took this announcement to mean that IPv6 information would now (after 4 Feb) be included in downloaded copies of root hints. Delays, studies, byte limits, all that stuff... I assumed that if placed the IPv6 addresses in my own local copy of root hints and I queried one of the root servers, "B,F,H,K,or M" for instance, with an IPv6 only host I would get an answer that included AAAA (and A) records prior to 4 Feb. It's a minor nit, I know, but is this correct? jy On Feb 6, 2008, at 10:43 AM, Dan York wrote: Yes, and I realized after sending this that what I had seen earlier (that I mentioned at the end of my note) was just the announcement on January 4th that the root servers would be updated on February 4th. |
