Okay, I'll agree, but "if there were motivation" is a very large "if"... The only motivation would be money, as represented by customers leaving to competitors as a result of a service provider not offering your proposed service bundle. If you can figure out a way to persuade service providers of this belief, I would ask that you also persuade them that they have to offer dual-stack for all of their customers (which may have already resulted in them losing a small number of customers who expected IPv6 by now... :-) Thanks! /John
