I'm looking for documentation on how the US Government IPv6 mandate =
affects associated agencies--e.g. healthcare providers, non-profits, or =
any company that depends on US Gvt. funding, record keeping, or =
financial reimbursement for services rendered (e.g. via Medicare).

Over the past 5 years most US Gvt--Assoc. Agencies communications have =
moved from modem/BBS type systems to Internet based systems.  With the =
mandate, IPv4 will still be available, but I would bet it will be less =
and less supported as time moves on.  I would like to see what the Gvt. =
has planned....

I've googled, read FAQs, and looked over the docs at whitehouse.gov =
without much luck.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?
