The point of the article was to make more people aware of IPv6 and to
urge them actually start planning to move to IPv6.

I've got IPv6 at home today (tunneled).  If my ISP moves to CGN
without also enabling native IPv6 I will loose my IPv6.  That would
be going backwards.

For the client side there is no downside in enabling IPv6 today.

Recently I set up a new account with the incumbent ISP and asked their sales
department (several times) about IPv6 support.  Their reply was odd,
and I eventually found that the translation was
'you have mentioned something we have had no training in so this is
our stock response.'

This persisted even when I got into second and third level support, 
so there are big ISP out there who have not yet heard of IPv6.  We have
a long way to go and not much time to go it in.

You can find Daniel's recent talk at http://www.ipv6.ie/summit2010/.

I can find a link to his talk on that site, but each time I click on
that link I get a quickly-broken TCP connection.  Overloaded, perhaps?
