Maybe it's because IETF/IRTF already have their outward facing
services available over IPv6 (Web, Mail, &, DNS at least - I checked
only for ietf.org and irtf.org).
The stated purpose of IPv6 day seems to be to get folks who don't
have any IPv6 in production yet to make it available for a 24-hour
period for a "test drive":
On 8 June, 2011, Google, Facebook, Yahoo!, Akamai and
Limelight Networks will be amongst some of the major organisations
that will offer their content over IPv6 for a 24-hour "test
flight". The goal of the Test Flight Day is to motivate organizations
across the industry ? Internet service providers, hardware makers,
operating system vendors and web companies ? to prepare their services
for IPv6 to ensure a successful transition as IPv4 addresses run out.
But sure, it sounds fine to me if we are also publicising
organizations who already have production IPv6 services running long
in advance of "World IPv6 Day".

Noting the increasing length of the list at
http://isoc.org/wp/worldipv6day/participants/ (now with many former staunch
nay-sayers on it, pleasingly), and that the ISOC considers itself a member, I
think it only right to point out that we (IETF, IRTF, IESG, IAB, ICANN, IANA,
et al) are not listed.
I don't suppose now is the time for an April 1 RFC discussing our commitment
to the IPv6 protocol, and our intent to be present on World IPv6 day
......... is it?
Yes, I think we probably deserve a small slice of that publicity pie, too. :-)
