I would urge potential sponsors to insist that V6 is on the agenda as a condition of funding, both meeting sponsors and Beer 'N Gear.

it is possible that vendors might not want that story told on their behalf... there are still a significant number of vendors without any story for v6 :( (without a reasonable story I'd say)

For what it's worth, I won't be at the next NANOG -- it falls at the same time as MAAWG, and I already had planned to be there to give an invited technical presentation. I will try to be at the next one in Albuquerque, though... Having said that, I would be interested to hear the NANOG community input on two particular topics: [1] The results of the "Report from the IAB Workshop on Routing and Addressing", and it's effect on IPv6 multihoming on the Internet routing system, and; [2] Vince Fuller's statistics that he has presented several times in several different venues. [1] http://www.cs.ucla.edu/~lixia/draft-iab-raws-report.txt [2] http://www.iab.org/about/workshops/routingandaddressing/vaf-iab-raws.pdf I think before people start rushing off to deploy v6, there are some serious issues that need to be addressed, regardless of v4 resource exhaustion. - - ferg p.s. If there are newer versions of the above two documents available, mea culpa -- these should at least illustrate my point... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP Desktop 9.6.1 (Build 1012) wj8DBQFGWODaq1pz9mNUZTMRAsl2AKDmQEMlDsfhio4fQ9hPEbiafTSmhwCfSm0i hk/MlzMHFJj/FS090gVGpE4= =aOC6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- "Fergie", a.k.a.
