Perhaps you missed the following? http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/83/slides/slides-83-iab-5-technical-plenary.pdf http://www.extremetech.com/mobile/127213-ipv6-now-deployed-across-entire-t-mobile-us-network http://conference.apnic.net/__data/assets/pdf_file/0017/50813/vzw_apnic_13462152832-2.pdf In fact, I would point you to slide 13 + 14 of that PDF as to the success of IPv6 traffic growth. http://comcast6.net/index.php/8-ipv6-trial-news-and-information/92-deployment-update Those are just a sampling of recent announcements/activity I can recall recently. I'm sure if you looked around, you'd see similar activity by other wireless networks and residential broadband providers. Admittedly, we're still quite a ways from when IPv6 traffic volume will exceed IPv4 traffic growth. Regardless, it's illogical to (continue to) assume that IPv6 is not being widely deployed in the real-world, right now. -shane _______________________________________________ rrg mailing list rrg@irtf.org http://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/rrg
