Hi,

Yes, that's a known issue... no route6 object and some folks which sit 
behind a network that uses the same mechanisms for filtering out v4 and 
v6 won't ever receive it. This is why RPSLng is somewhat important! :-)

Complaining about this from the side which is not receiving the 
"unregistered" routes is imho not a good path... the effect of not 
receiving these routes is just being caused by handling v6 in parity with 
v4 -- in a production sense -- and in the end that's positive......

So, PLEASE place your v6 objects in the same location you register your v4 
ones! :-)))

Best Regards,
