Personally, I stopped pressuring vendors that didn't support IPv6,
preferring to drop the completely and pick up one with equal or better
service who did. Sometimes this was easy, sometimes it was exceedingly
difficult. In every case when they asked why I said it was the lack of
IPv6 support because I've been running a dual stack network for years,
not as part of some future plan.
