IPv6 DNS servers?

Am I reading it right that Sonic does not (yet) have an IPv6 addressable name server? If that's right, what are people using for name service over IPv6?

Correct, we do not have IPv6 enabled DNS recursors yet.

It looks like Google's public recursors offer v6 support:

I would recommend choosing the dns servers that you have the lowest latency to. This is likely our v4 servers. At this point since our network is not running native v6 in the core, this would be faster than any v6 service which would just be run on tunnels on top of v4 anyway.

We have had v6 authoritative name servers for quite a while now.
