I think this discussion could continue for a while with everyone's
different opinions........

Lets start looking forward;
While on the subject on Ipv6 deployments, If you have not started a Ipv6
deployment for your network  - I wonder if anyone can comment about whats
holding them back?
Is it upstream connectivity/legacy devices/lack of business
driver/time/training/testing etc.

Might be interesting to see what is the feedback from the industry.
