Tomas, can you check on this please?
I still see no changes ... IPv6 still fails.
For people in need for a quick fix, the IPv6 host can be blackhold with a rule on the firewall like: ip6tables -I FORWARD -d 2001:1568:b:0:164::1 -j REJECT (as it still fails atm.)
Within a short amount of time, the host will be removed from our mirror listings completely due to no available contact.
Please remove IPv6 address for this mirror - we're still getting it on-line and the ipv6 variant is not (obviously) ready for production. Thank you!

OMG, silly me :-) AAAA record removed until IPv6 connectivity issues have been settled on our side. Sorry for trouble.
Thanks.
OK. blackholing removed.
