Hi guys!

As I was testing out Googles new free DNS server today, I noticed that it lacks IPv6 connectivity. 

>From their FAQ; 

Q: Does Google Public DNS support IPv6?
A: Google Public DNS can respond to requests for IPv6 addresses (AAAA requests), but it does not yet support native IPv6 transport and cannot talk to IPv6-only authoritative nameservers. Clients should use IPv4 network connections to use Google Public DNS.

Are there others out there that may be reached via IPv6? Nice to have, when testing IPv6-only networks.. 

... or perhaps the Google Santa will bring us something? Who knows.. 

Seasonal greetings to all of you, and great work spreading the v6-love!

Best Regards,
