We have been through *that* argument before - it wasn't very good 2 years
ago (the 6bone *is* (was) an internet registry, and nothing says "only the 
4 established IPv4 regional registries are considered").

Besides that, e.f.f.3.ip6.arpa *has* been delegated, so what's this
argument supposed to be about?

; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> @dns1.icann.org e.f.f.3.ip6.arpa 
;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
e.f.f.3.ip6.arpa.       23h30m IN NS    ns3.nic.fr.
e.f.f.3.ip6.arpa.       23h30m IN NS    flag.ep.net.
e.f.f.3.ip6.arpa.       23h30m IN NS    imag.imag.fr.
e.f.f.3.ip6.arpa.       23h30m IN NS    sonata.hexago.com.

- looks perfectly fine to me.
