Yes, it's in and out. Currently it's www.java.com (from our perspective). Note that we monitor probably just a very small fraction of Akamai's dual-stacked sites, so why some sites "lose" their AAAA is a mystery to me. They have a relatively short TTL, backend issues can get exposed pretty quickly.
Due to HE, this is probably not visible to most end-users.

They seem to be back, but I’m curious as to what is going on.
