I'd love for people to help John with his simulation so that we get a better idea; note that he doesn't need IPv6 data. I'm afraid I don't have the required data myself.)

I'm obviously biased since I run dnswl.org, but an IPv6-based
whitelist may work better than an IPv6-based blacklist. Enumerating
the goodness is generally easier than enumerating the badness.

(Of course, all IPv6-DNSxLs have the same risk of caches blowing up if
not done right, and the "done right" thing has not been defined yet).
