It's only a day away!  IPv6 Addresses for the Root Servers are coming.

Looks like I can reach 5/6 of them.  f.root-servers.net loops in OCCAID:

I believe the newer versions of bind are setup so that the root hints are slaves, so it should just pull down the latest version automatically.

Obviously it still has a main root hints but I'm not sure if it needs to be always updated.
