Re: Reminder that Charging Scheme Task Force comments are open until the end of the month

I have the same problem myself. As a newbie, I only got an IPv4 network through the waiting list. I hope it's finally my turn in a month or two. I've worked my way up from 1183rd place to 72nd place. Given the current international situation with IPv6, I urgently need it if I want to make any money with services for businesses. And as a web host who rents out VServers, you really need more than a /24; even as a small company, I would like a /22. All customers want cheap VServers. But they have both IPv4 and IPv6. I don't get any money for pure IPv6 VServers. I'm the last person who doesn't support IPv6 only. But I also believe that as long as /16 and more are just lying around in the corners and some people are making a lot of money by selling and renting IPv4, IPv6 will only be running on the side for the next 20 years because some people can no longer get IPv4 or can only afford it. I currently have IPv6-only in my test infrastructure to test where it still has problems. Likewise, I need to be able to read and write IPv6 addresses, not just 255.255.255.255, which is much easier for many people and IPv6 is not even being considered. What is currently bothering me is the fee model. I have almost no chance of earning money and my costs are extreme, especially in Germany, for connections and electricity. But I have the same membership fee as those who use IPv4 as a money-making machine, and we are even at the mercy of the situation because of the general stock and have to rent or buy to have any future as a business. Something simply has to be done more vigorously. Even if it only means turning off IPv4 worldwide on January 1, 2028, for example. -- Best regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen Walde IT-Systemhaus - CEO Dirk Walde - IT-Specialist
