At some point here we need to bite the bullet and put IPv6 DNS in
the ".". Why not an equal but separate set of root name servers
for V6 under IANA control? The named.root file can be distributed
in three flavors. IPv4 only, 6 and 4, 6 only? This is a political
issue and perhaps off the mark here.

Should this be discussed with the DNS Root Server System Advisory
Committee or is the root servers status a political nightmare?
