    > Bad 6to4 (which almost all of it is)

draft-ietf-v6ops-6to4-advisory says:

  The experiment conducted by Aben recorded a failure rate of between 9%
  and 20% of all 6to4 connection attempts. The experiment conducted by
  Huston has recorded a failure rate of between 9% and 19% of all 6to4
  clients.

20% != "almost all of it".

This is again a complete misrepresentation of the actual situation. Please
name _one_ person who thinks that automatically enabled 6to4 is not
causing any problems.
