Hi Wilhelm, Lot of things were said and all are correct. Lack of knowledge, budget, priority, interest, projects, success. It might be rather an approach for RIPE and other RIRs to get in contact with governmental units, setting up legislation as with the office of management and budget in the US: https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/M-21-07.pdf / "Completing the Transition to Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)" I believe that no government will successfully force companies by laws, but it'll be rather an idea to start with governmental department and public services first things. Submitting companies' annual financial statements, registering cars, health related information to public insurances via IPV6 only would massively help. But that's a long road. RIRs might help with consulting for free / small charge, but without governments and legislation, companies do what they're supposed to... earning revenue with minimum effort. If there's any request for support in a small working group, you can contact me for further discussions. -----Original Message----- From: ipv6-wg <ipv6-wg-bounces@ripe.net> On Behalf Of Paolo Volpato via ipv6-wg Sent: Mittwoch, 31.

Hi Wilhelm, In addition, I would add that they also lack the budget to consider deploying IPv6, meaning that enterprises don't consider IPv6 as a priority. At least, this is what we found during the editing of RFC 9386 on IPv6 deployment status. I would be happy to contribute to this effort.

We have often wondere why enterprises do not migrate to IPv6. One possible answer is: They have no time and they lack knowledge. Many IT departments don't have any spare time for reading RFCs. From my understanding these IT departments don't need papers explaining the many possibilites to choose from. They need very clear guidance and examples. I am looking for 3 to 4 people who would like to start working on this with me. Peter Hessler contacted me during the meeting and he offered his help, time and expertise for this project. Thank you, Peter.
