I'd like to second that.  I've found 6 to 4 and teredo incredibly
useful in internal and virtualization applications today.

IPV6 is at a point where it has critical applications within
infrastructures.  People look at factors like whether major websites
publish AAAA records as a success metric for IPV6.

That doesn't make sense today.  We're telling people they need dual
stack.  So, if I have an IPV4 address, why would it benefit me to
publish AAAA records?

The question for judging IPV6 right now is does IPV6 enable new
applications and reduce costs.  The answer seems to be that in a
number of important cases that IPV6 does actually reduce costs or
enable new applications.  That's enough to drive the network effects
that will drive adoption.
