Not sure - our Akamai support people have so far not told us that it's production ready (we ask periodically; maybe we aren't talking to the right people). And thus far, they haven't permitted us to point the www.upenn.edu AAAA record to Akamai. A non production name (ipv6.upenn.edu) mirroring the same content does have a AAAA to Akamai though. But, checking www.worldipv6launch.org just now shows that it have IPv6 records now: ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;www.worldipv6launch.org.
