More to the point, it seems to me the working group is highly enterprise focused, and seems to want to give enterprises what they (think) they want with little concern for how it impacts the global Internet.
Well, thinking about the enterprise for a change might be a good idea, as the Enterprise markets are the one paying most of the ISPs in the end. And with the ISP-centric approach of the current address policies there is absolutely no chance IPv6 will ever make it to the big market. Snip You bring up a very good point and one that is often ignored. The enterprise customers Do they understand IPv6 Do they want IPv6 Do they need IPv6 Are they writing IPv6 applications Right now there is no good reason for them to switch to ipv6 and they certainly aren't writing any apps for it. They are however waiting and hoping it doesn't happen.
