Yes, there are. Viagenie has announced the first experimental root IPv6
servers beginning of December. I include their original message.

======================================================================
Hi,
we are making available to the IPv6 community an IPv6 root and gtld dns
server for experimental purposes. This will enable dns resolution using
IPv6 up to the dns root level. This server is configured to be
authoritative for the root zone and the gtld zones.
This service is on a best effort basis and no garantee is given. One
should not configure its production dns service pointing to this server. It
is offered in order to help the IPv6 community to expand the testing of a
full IPv6 network, without any IPv4 transport or service. Viagenie has no
intent to offer any dns root server service and will shutdown the service
as soon as the "real" root servers will support IPv6.
Information on how to use the service is available at:
http://www.viagenie.qc.ca/en/ipv6/dnsrs/utilisation.shtml. Generic
information is available at:
http://www.viagenie.qc.ca/fr/nouvelles/commdepresse/dnsrs_200011.shtml.
This service is partly funded by Canarie and is located on the CA*net3
network.
Regards, Marc.
