Going back to the subject on this message: I think the session was generally positive. Next time perhaps the term "Tutorial" should be dropped... this and the fact it was held from 13:00 to 15:00 on a sunday might have driven people away from it......
Thanks for the positive feedback. (Actually, it was quite a novel experience to see your own words being typed in real-time on the transcript monitors... and yes, it did quite confuse me :) ).
I specially did get a bad feeling about the question being raised by the jordan government person: didn't feel he got a proper and clear answer... imho he should have heard IPv6 should be something to have in mind because v4 address exaustion can in fact endanger internet companies' business in jordan (in the same way it will in every other country!) in the medium/long run.
I thought I said something along the line of "it's a preparedness thing, for the time IPv4 runs out" - but maybe that wasn't clear enough. *Today*, there indeed is no cost saving in changing to IPv6 - but making sure all your gear is ready for IPv6 will save you money when you can't avoid IPv6 any longer..
