Can you post a list and/or communicate with the SP that are not set up for
peering and let them either fix it or indicate whether they have any
immediate plans to implement IPv6 peering.

Maybe make it an onboarding question for new peers - do you intend to peer
with the route servers using IPv6 and configure BIRD appropriate for new
members? If off document the process to request IPv6 be turned up.
