For a pessimistic outlook on what will be poison for the network, try: http://ripe63.ripe.net/presentations/205-2011-10-31-exhaustion.pdf on the alternatives to widespread, rapid IPv6 deployment. Successful transition to IPv6 is by no means a sure thing. The only advantage IPv6 has going for it right now is that it offers virtually unlimited, easily available address space. If we keep creating artificial scarcity by way of arbitrary rules and restrictions, IPv6 deployment *will not happen*. For the consequences, refer to the above. Regards, Sascha Luck
