Well IMHO it's a very important point to consider. This is a great 
chance to switch your IGP, if you've ever wanted to. You *need* to 
deploy a new one anyways, so it's a great opportunity to see if you can 
simplify your network by migrating. Especially as OSPFv3 *isnt* the same 
as OSPFv2, so you will have to learn new things either way!

Oh, and I *am* in the process of organising a Crusade to wipe out those 
heretical OSPF supporters once and for all... ;)
