Crusty in the right places. Worth the chew.
Summary
The test-ipv6.com website, which has been providing IPv6 testing services to the public since 2010, will not be retired as previously announced. After the retirement announcement, multiple organizations and individuals offered support, leading to a transition where a Regional Internet Registry (RIR) will take over operation of the site to continue serving the public interest. The site will remain online under new management.
