If you only need IPv6 essentially for testing (ie. low bandwidth
requirements && no SLA), then I can provide you a tunnel into our
network, and provide you with as much IPv6 space to play with as you like.

You will need a router (Cisco, FreeBSD, Juniper etc) at your edge in
order to establish an IPv6IP tunnel to one of my routers.

Email me off-list if you are interested in further details.

BTW, to answer your question, no... even if your ISP is not IPv6
compliant, that does not stop you from implementing IPv6 on your public
servers.
