do we REALLY think it's still just /marketing problem/ that keeps v6 deployment on the slow-boat? Yes.
I have a confession: I don't use IPv6.
I don't use IPv6 at home because:
1. My Verizon FiOS link does not support IPv6. 2. My Cox Cable Internet link does not support IPv6. 3. The colo I tunnel to in order to announce my addresses via BGP does not support IPv6. 4. IPv6 does not offer me enough value to pony up the $500 initial and $100/year ARIN fees I would have to pay in order to have parity with my IPv4 installation, at least not until my other vendors support it.
I don't use IPv6 at work because:
1. My employer moved half of everything to the Amazon cloud. AWS does not support IPv6. 2. My employer moved the other half of everything to various software as a service vendors, none of whom implement IPv6.
Marketing problem? If it won't work with -any- of the vendors I do business with, that's not a marketing problem.
