At best, it's a hack that might allow us to cope with a few years of transition while there are still devices in homes that are IPv4-only, but it certainly doesn't reduce or remove the imperative.I agree wholeheartedly, but I'm unsure whether or not this view is held by those who control spending and prioritization within most, or even many, ISPs. Mobility (and everything is inexorably becoming mobile) is an obvious place where IPv6 makes a lot of sense, for example. But native IPv6 on one's own access networks and then gatewaying/proxying to IPv4 for actual 'Internet' connectivity seems to be a significant direction.
Interesting. All the IPv6 capable carriers I talk to are only gatewaying/proxying to IPv4 for things unreachable via IPv6. If you've got an IPv6 capable cell phone on an IPv6 capable mobile network, I doubt that you get to google through an IPv4 proxy. Owen
