As of Junos 10.4, RVI's on the EX platform do not support 
'destination-address' match conditions for egress firewall 
filters, whether for v4 or v6.

They really aren't the same.

IOS XR is no Junos, but it certainly isn't IOS either. 

Seeing is believing :-).

We've deployed a couple of ASR9010's. They're pretty solid, 
nothing to write home about.

The routing policy code still needs some improving, but 
otherwise, not bad. The ASR9000 has suffered from a lack of 
features in the past, but with the current iteration of IOS 
XR, I think it's there. And the roadmap is looking really 
solid.

I know a vendor that will be implementing LDPv6 and RSVPv6. 
Keep your eyes open :-).
