This is encouraging to see. None of the major mobile carriers in eastern, western, central and southern Africa have done anything IPv6-related on their network that I am aware about. The availability of IPv4 space in the AFRINIC region, coupled with the ease of spending millions on CG-NAT's vs. rolling out IPv6 means unless they start, someone's pants will be at their knees in a non-picturesque way very soon. The lack of interest, head-in-the-sand approach is quite alarming, particularly as mobile networks are increasingly carrying the majority of consumer data traffic in Africa, year-in, year-out. Mark.
