[ppml] Any backbones that do route IPv6?

[Mentzer, Sean]

It may be different now, but at least initially, the Qwest IPv6 network was seperate from the IPv4 network, so there was no native IPv6 service available to customers.  All customer ipv6 traffic was tunneled across ipv4 to the seperate network.  Could have changed by now, but I didn't think so.
