[arin-announce] Deprecation of ip6.int Scheduled for June 1, 2006

[Member Services]

In August 2005, RFC 4159 Deprecation of ip6.int was published as Best 
Current Practice. This RFC noted that maintenance of ip6.int is no 
longer required and that the Regional Internet Registries adopt a 
schedule for cessation of ip6.int. All the RIRs have agreed to deprecate 
ip6.int on June 1, 2006. Further note that ARIN no longer modifies any 
of the zones it administers under ip6.int effective December 7, 2005.
