It has been my experience that when you phrase things in an AF-neutral  
way in conversations with operators in Australia and New Zealand it  
mainly leads to bitter, cynical laughter, "yeah, like *we* have any  
IPv6 down here". In that context, the ability to plumb tunnels to  
Brisbane rather than California probably represents a win.

In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.
