In the e-mail to which you are replying (and top-posting, no less :), Mike said: "I'm bugging the powers-that-be about 
getting forward records working."  While I agree doing v6 is nice and all, I think brow-beating an un-paid volunteer on 
something they already said they were trying to get working is a bit much.

Remember, this is a community effort.  The people running the web & name servers are donating their time & their 
companies' resources to the community.  If you believe they are doing it wrong, please step up and help.  Input is 
great, encouraged even.  Help is better.

Complaining about NewNOG (soon to be NANOG) is complaining about -yourself-.  If you are reading this message, you ARE 
NewNOG.
