    Cheers - hadn't thought of doing that route! Even so, until we have everyone on an IPV6 enabled machine then you can't use just IPV6 A records, you will still need to maintain an IPV4 route to the host otherwise you will miss traffic. Or that was the conclusion I came to... Let me know if I am wrong!
    There are technologies that enable IPv4 user to access an IPv6-only site, but I think that's something best avoided for now! Perhaps it would be nice to offer access to a site that is both IPv4 & IPv6 reachable, for those who are starting to run dual stack or use IPv6, especially if it's an IT-focused site. Not sure the demand is high enough yet though for it to be a real requirement.
