I think this is spot on; IPv6 never makes it to the top of the list for most organisations.
From my previous life, almost 6/7years ago the decision to either go with IPv6 (network was ready and we did the POC as well) or buy more IPv4 blocks was made on the basis of a 2/3sec pause from the engineering head in response to a BU head questioning "are you confident that IPv6 is not going to create any problems?" 2 days later I was talking to brokers. Fast forward, I would be interested if someone who can do myth busting for c-suite would be great. A Panel may be?
