Righto, perhaps it's not kooky.  Despite the admittedly small demand,
it just seems such a trivial "feature" to have to jump through
administrative hoops of swapping registrars for. I'll do what I need to do,
but of course if there is a way to make the magic happen without the pain
that is great :)

honestly I had thought this came up before (wrt dotster) and someone
mentioned after their ordeal that some jiggery-pokery with the
techsupport folks got it 'fixed'??

This problem did involve some long phone conversation where you have
to reboot your 'windows only' machine a few times to be sure though,
of course...

Anyone with a contact at Doster with the ability to make things happen?
Apparently they do not support v6 glue records and they have been
unresponsive to my ticket. This seems a kooky reason to change
registrars.

The table of registrars over at sixxs who have at least some way to get
v6
glue records has been getting greener and greener, but no love from
Dotster.

It's not kooky at all. If you need a service your current provider
can't/won't provide, then find a new one that will.
