there are places in this world with working v6 at scale.... the folk involved COULD use them. (I thought, actually, that akamai's v6 offering was actually production, just not wide-spread?) > Akamai does have a trial IPv6 program though - we host IPv6 > capable Akamai nodes on our campus for example, and a non > production version of our university website is using it - > so ISOC could try seeing if they could be hosted on that > infrastructure. My question is when is FiOS going to get v6 natively? could we get the engineers there to actually do something as opposed to trials of non-production systems that'll never actually get deployed? :) -chris > > -- > Shumon Huque > University of Pennsylvania. >
