I doubt there's a correlation between owning legacy IPv4 space and not implementing IPv6. The organisations I've dealt with who have no interest in IPv6 also have very little IPv4 address space and use RFC1918 extensively internally. The problem seems to be that networking is rarely their core function - they are in some other industry and the amount of expertise they have for networking is spread thin, which limits their ability to embrace change. Their engineers don't attend UKNOF, they aren't in our sphere of influence, they barely realise IPv6 is a thing - to them it's some research project that someone mentioned once. Until their customers demand it, they won't react. They might as well engrave "If it aint broke, don't fix it" on their computer room door. it sucks for new entrants to the ISP industry. Sorry. Aled
