I meant that PTR isn't a priority for ISPs. A la Comcast's rollout of IPv6 lacks PTR, as does Google in general for v4 and v6 (even though they have it internally). On Tue, Oct 22, 2013 at 2:21 PM, Joe Abley <jabley@hopcount.ca> wrote:

Everyone loves IPv6, and it's a fantastic technology. However, I've been pondering a few quirks of v6, including the low priority of PTR,
Not sure what that means, but...
but I have a question I want to throw out there:
Do you think IPv6 geolocatoin (GeoIP) will ever be viable?
To me it seems like an easier problem to solve than IPv4. There's no historical assignment swamp. Subnets are of fixed size. Many/most organisations who receive a direct assignment will never need a second.
If so, when do you think this will happen?
As soon as enough people using geo-located services start doing so over v6.
