I take it that applies to existing nodes that once had working IPv6 connectivity and become nonworking at some point. But how about /new/ nodes that advertise IPv6 connectivity but never had it working?
I also note that a significant fraction of the 56 nodes in the list of non working IPv6 nodes ha no connectivity at all. No IPv6 /and/ no IPv4. It is not what I expected but I can live with it.
I have send netmail to all the nodes that have IPv4 connectivity but no working IPv6. We shall see where that brings us.
