6to4 DNS space

[David Malone]

Is it my imagination, or has the reverse DNS space for 2002:: become
a twisty maze of lame delegations again? Only two of the five
ip6.arpa servers answer a query for 2.0.0.2.ip6.arpa; the other 3
look lame.

The ones that work point to name servers in 6to4.nro.net. Two of
the four servers for nro.net can give NS records for 6to4.nro.net
and the other two are lame.

When I finally ask for addresses of the servers in 6to4.nro.net, 3
of the 4 servers are probably lame, and the fourth REFUSED to answer
my query.
