so implications that this is somehow related to Google dragging their feet are silly.
Implying that the root name server operators, or Verisign (manager of the .com name servers) did not test very thoroughly that everything is fine with their DNS service is just as silly.
I guess it's obvious they had different techniques for measuring the impact of their changes.... Can you point to published studies where the root and .com server operators analyzed Todd's questions? """ "didn't notice a problem" is woefully insufficient here. how carefully was this measured? how was it measured? across what diversity of traffic. what was the threshold for "a problem" here. different use cases have different tolerances for the kinds of bad user experience that google is concerned about here, both in terms of percentage and in amount of impact. """ As others have said, things will improve as more sites go dual-stack, and google.com will enable dual-stack as soon as it's viable. In the meantime, we encourage our competitors to try. ;) Damian
