At Could you please elaborate on this point? My data presented <http://www.ops.ietf.org/lists/v6ops/v6ops.2008/msg01582.html> indicates that there are very very few (the longer I collected the data, the better the ratio got) who cannot properly fetch a resource that has A/AAAA. > this point, I'd say people are still trying to figure out how clients > will migrate to IPv6.

Quite, I think OSS/BSS is going to be a bigger challenge than actually moving the IPv6 packets. > IPv6: It's kind of like storing dry food in preparation for the > apocalypse. If you actually KNOW the apocalypse is coming (but not when), this is correct. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se
