John,

> Ole we actually have experience that tells us it would be bad if we turned our relays.  Some streaming service experience is already not optimal over 6to4 using our relays largely related to the protocol not the relays themselves.  Turning ours down would result in the use of a single 6to4 relay on someone else's network.  Further this relay is hosted by a university.  For now we think it makes more sense to keep our running and encourage client side disablement until there is ~0 bits over 6to4.

yep, I understand the choice and what bind you're in.
my hope was that everyone, including the university would stop their 6to4 public relays.

cheers,
Ole
