  I believe that this represents the "status quo" of IPv4 reverse maps
being applied to IPv6. 

  Given that 6to4 will be primarily used by SOHO users connected to clueless
"broadband" ISPs to get IPv6 service, if we adopt the limited version of
draft-moore-6to4-dns-03.txt that is outlined in the above document, it will
result is no IPv6 6to4 users getting a working reverse map.

  I.e. the above document is pretty much a "do nothing" document.

  (btw, the document has expired, so how can I review it? the text should have
been copied!) 

  I strongly suggest that we do need the kind of mechansim outlined in
section 3.2 of draft-moore-6to4-dns-03.txt. This will work. Even for people
who have LinkSys/D-Link DSL sharing boxes and know nothing about forward or
reverse, but are thrilled to now have IPv6.
