Hi Brian,

Please let me ask you directly as you seem to be most familiar with
the Windows' IPv6 implementation in this list.

We are now checking various IPv6 implementations that perform IPv6 DNS
reverse lookups as the deprecated ip6.int top level domain will soon
be out of service and it may cause troubles in operation.  (Regarding
the deprecation plan, see, for example, APNIC's proposal at
http://www.apnic.net/meetings/20/docs/sigs/dns/dns-prop-sanjaya-ip6int-deprecation.pdf)

We are considering four possible implementations:
1. try only ip6.arpa
2. try only ip6.int
3. try ip6.arpa and then fall back to ip6.int if the first attempt
   fails
4. try ip6.int and then fall back to ip6.arpa if the first attempt
   fails

My question is which one Windows' IPv6 implementation adopts or if it
uses none of those what it is.  It would be also useful if we can get
per-version (e.g., XP vs Vista) or per-application (e.g., IE and
others) differences if any.

Thanks in advance,
