John, I'd like to call your attention to slide 8, the chart showing growth in fully working IPv6 deployments. Should that growth trend be allowed to continue, IPv4-only deployments can be expected to fall into the minority after another few hundred years. The upcoming conversion of IPv4 addressing into a zero-sum game (as a result of free pool depletion) is likely to increase this growth trend, but it's anybody's guess whether the new growth trend improves to something with a faster-than-linear feedback loop. And of course once free pool depletion hits, the cost to deploy additional IPv4 systems starts to grow immediately, independent of pre-majority IPv6 growth. We might want to consider additional public policy incentives to kick the IPv6 growth rate into a higher gear. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William D.
