policy routing, ipv6 and 3rd party software

Hello,

I was wondering when policy routing configured in junipers where examining
source address or source and destination address pairs to determine next
hop address would this be dropped to software processing or is it done
as much in software as static routing?

Second, is the information about juniper IPv6-software still under
NDA? Will the current line cards support hardware routing in IPv6 also, if
not is firmware upgrade all we need or new line cards?

What is the general attitude towards installing own software to junipers,
how does this reflect on support? Will juniper pack software, if enough
people wish it to be packed, and thus accepted to be used. I'd like
to see tcpdump and/or ethereal in JunOS.
