Re: Dual stack IPv6 for IPv4 depletion

I suspect a 16 /8 right about now would be very welcome for everybody 
other then the ipv6 adherents.

It would, if the software supported it. But it doesn't.

Is there any reason to think the world would update its TCP stacks to
handle those extra IPv4 addresses any sooner than it'd update its
stacks to handle IPv6?  Doesn't seem likely.

R's,
John
