That is a good question and I wish I had a good answer. I'm trying to beat the drums where I work for IPv6 and it is tough because nobody has thought about it and in our situation I actuallly have a good case. We develop mobile apps and with the amount of IPv6 VZW and T-mobile are doing having at least IPv6 to the load balancer at least needs to be thought about. It is just tough because most organizations have just not been thinking about IPv6 at all and it is going to take "something" to get it on their radar. -- Brian Hartsfield CCNA, CCDA AIM: kd4aej Twitter: Krandor1 Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/brian.hartsfield Linkedin: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brianhartsfield On Thu, Jun 19, 2014 at 2:35 PM, John Curran <jcurran@arin.net> wrote:

Brian -
Any suggestions on how ARIN should reach those CIO's in the meantime? (so as to reduce the number who experience such surprise) We've done some attempts at outreach to that community, and have advice from PR firms, etc., but I'm interested in a more "real world" perspective on getting their attention before we hit the wall...
Thanks! /John
