You should be able to host your own reverse DNS for IPv6 in many cases. On my setup, only the IPv6 address assigned by my ISP to the router's PPPoE interface has a reverse DNS (it's outside my /56). Inside my /56, I have reverse DNS delegated to a DNS provider and my records are in there for the hosts with static IPv6 addresses. The BBSs should resolve to the same hostnames that are in their AAAA records. If not, then I have to update my reverse DNS. :D

Yep, the BBSs have reverse DNS. :)
That is one thing I do like about IPv6, control of reverse DNS is very often possible. :)
