[arin-ppml] IPV6, Not yet (OT)

[Owen DeLong]

Thanks for naming the vendor. I think at this point in the game that does more good than politely removing their names from public emails of this nature.

For more information on products and their state of IPv6 readiness, people can also refer to the ARIN IPv6 Wiki. If you haven't already put something about this product there, please do.
