<with my vendor hat off...> If we consider the phases in terms of IPv6 deployment...., Ph-0: IPv4 only Ph-1: IPv4/v6 dual stack + v4/v6 coexistence technologies Ph-2: IPv6 only I suppose MPLS v6 control plane would become necessary at Ph-2, or a later stage of Ph-1. In the meantime, MPLS can be viewed as one of the v4/v6 coexistence technologies. IPv6 traffic can be carried over v4 signaled MPLS LSP in various ways (i.e. 6PE/6VPN, static mapping onto TE-LSP, IGP cutthrough..). Miya

So please, if you are spending your hard earned cash, please ask for an LDP6 implementation, "no demand" should not be the case.
I sent our SE's at C & J yet another reminder about this.
