Ipv6 is not important for users, it is important for network operators who want to sustain their business.
I agree with the first part; not sure I agree with the second part.
Nope. Nobody will leave money on the table by alienating users.
I think it may be possible to make money with compelling IPv6-only content/services/applications.
Apple and msft os' s now make a clear judgement on that. So, you need to update your perspective.
I'm not very interested in their judgement. So, I'm quite happy with my perspective, thanks.
Does not matter. And it will not happen.
Proof by repeated assertion doesn't sway me.
The better question, for an isp, is what kind of ipv4 secondary market budget do you have? How hot is your cgn running? Like ALGs much ? Security and attribute much ?
These are important, yes.
Again , users dont care or know about v4 or v6. This is purely a network operator and app issue (cough cough ... skype).
It's my contention that IPv6 won't be widely deployed unless/until end-customers call up their ISPs demanding this 'IPv6 or whatever' thing they need to accomplish some goal they have. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Roland Dobbins <rdobbins@arbor.net> // <http://www.arbornetworks.com> Luck is the residue of opportunity and design. -- John Milton
