I may be wrong but it looks like that for some people at some point the
only thing that matters is the sensation someone may be trying to tell
them how to do things than if IPv6 should be deployed or not.
Right, how long more will we be in this back and forth of "I know I have
to deploy IPv6 but I will do on my own time" ? How long more we will
hear things like "there is no other way out of transfer market" and "it
is natural thing to buy more IPv4 to be in business" and then right
after "Don't tell me I have to deploy IPv6".
There have been times in the past when deploying IPv6 had challenges,
concerns or limitations, but now a days let's be honest, there are
probably none. We are in 2019, nearly 2020 and it seems there are still
a significant amount of people that wishes to keep supporting the
transfer market rather than do the obvious that we all know will make
the Internet ecosystem to keep evolving, perhaps with less conflicts.
And what Albert is proposing to discuss is fair and very much
reasonable, nothing out of order: simply the organization to show it is
doing its job (or is there anyone the believes IPv6 is still just
accessory and can wait another 20 years ?) in order that is can use the
transfer mechanism of IPv4. He didn't suggest anything different than that.
Shall we focus on discussing the pro and cons of this possible proposal,
if it is suitable or not, if it will make the Internet advance or not,
rather than arm against the nature of things ?
Thanks for bringing this 2007 Board's statement to this discussion.

Fernando

I noticed this item from 7 May 2007 that I think would support my
suggestion:
WHEREAS, community access to Internet Protocol (IP) numbering
Resources has proved essential to the successful growth of the
Internet; and,
WHEREAS, ongoing community access to Internet Protocol version 4
(IPv4) numbering resources can not be assured indefinitely; and,
WHEREAS, Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) numbering resources
are available and suitable for many Internet applications,
BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby advises the
Internet community that migration to IPv6 numbering resources is
necessary for any applications which require ongoing availability from
ARIN of contiguous IP numbering resources; and,
BE IT ORDERED, that this Board of Trustees hereby directs ARIN
staff to take any and all measures necessary to assure veracity of
applications to ARIN for IPv4 numbering resources; and,
BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby requests the
ARIN Advisory Council to consider Internet Numbering Resource Policy
changes advisable to encourage migration to IPv6 numbering resources
where possible.
Unanimously passed by the Board of Trustees on 7 May 2007.

The US Government tried to force it's departments to do IPv6
most of them did it, but many promptly turned it off after
passing the tests.
David -
While not taking any position on the proposed policy change, I would
like to
make sure the record is correct with regard to USG IPv6 deployment…
To this day, US government agencies have a high IPv6 adoption rate
for their
public facing services (particularly when compared to the industry or
educational deployment rate in the US.)
Note that you can readily show this, as NIST measures deployment
daily and
publishes the results here - https://fedv6-deployment.antd.nist.gov
Thanks,
