Hi, I see plain IPv6 without any kind of IPv4 support including protocol translation as very nice idea there. People could see how much (or how few if I would like to be accurate and/or sarcastic) of public and their own private services like their SSH, POP3, SMTP or IM accounts could be reached by IPv6. It could be also a motivation for a lot of people to make more services v6 available *before* the meeting. I see a lot of v6 enabled networks but only a small amount of v6 enabled services.

Hi James & all,
I missed the "Berlin experiment" and i honestly feel those experiments are only useful to allow "IPv6 advocates" to check if they can really live/function without the "safety net" that IPv4 really is. :-)
I already know i can have 100% functionality with IPv6-only, because there is some stuff on my domain that i have absolutely no control.
IMHO, for the meeting "neutral attendee" this kind of experiment may become a pain, and it may, to some extent, create/increase resistance to IPv6 usage/deployment.
So, if the NCC is interested in allowing people to test how ready they really are to survive without IPv4 i would advice on installing one wifi access point a bit away from where most people concentrate, and clearly tag that area as "No IPv4 available here". You might even want to "stamp" the floor with colorful arrows driving people for the edge "Test-how-will-you-survive-without-v4" zone. :-))
Best Regards, Carlos
