As far as FR zone is concerned, we have officially applied for AAAA glue registration that in Feb 2003. Technical proofs was then given to IANA that there were no risk in adding AAAA glue in the root zone for FR zone (based on Draft Vixie & Kato http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsop-respsize-00.txt) Although that fact has been acknowledged by IANA and DNS experts, we are still waiting... We hope this issue will be solved very soon and I believe that IPv6 networking will be then much more credible (we will see real amounts of IPv6 traffic)...
