AWS stands out as a complete laggard in this area.

Heh... that's why I put all kinds of question marks and hedges :)
That's disappointing about aws. On the other hand, if aws lights
up v6, a huge amount of content will be v6 capable in one swell-foop.

Even if the only thing that supported IPv6 was ELB, and everything else
was
still IPv4 internally, that'd put a lot of traffic on IPv6 very quickly,
and
ELB is something *entirely* controlled by AWS (you CNAME to an ELB FQDN,
AWS
takes care of resolution and proxies a TCP connection to your instance).

elb ipv6 support has been in place for some time (may 2011 for us east
and ireland)

"IPv6 support is currently available in the following Amazon EC2 regions:
US East (Northern Virginia), US West (Northern California), US West
(Oregon), EU (Ireland), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), and Asia Pacific (Singapore).?

Yeah, I thought AWS ELB supported ipv6 too.

But if your ELB is tied to a VPC, that is NOT supported. I learned that one
the hard way, and now that is one less site that would be ipv6 but is not.
