Yes, the echo chamber of NANOG, that sometimes makes it out further :)
I=E2=80=99ve heard rumblings that Amazon is slowly making progress in =
the IPv6 front
and others are marching forward here. I think this will largely be =
driven
by the mobile marketing machine. There=E2=80=99s a lot of things =
converging at once
and I expect 2016 to see major shifts in =E2=80=9CIP Classic=E2=80=9D -> =
IPv6 traffic. We
saw a doubling of IPv6 bitrate on our network just by the iOS change in =
how
they handled happy eyeballs.
I=E2=80=99m hoping that Frontier brings v6 to their service area when =
they
close the deal on FiOS purchase from VZ.
For me on the marketing side: If you expect your users to visit from a
mobile device, your website and resources should be available and=20
optimized for IPv6.
