Really? In which decade do you think that facebook.com, yahoo.com,
twitter.com and google.com will stop returning an A RR? And what is
their incentive for doing so?
You need to explain why a business would voluntarily stop listening to
IPv4 traffic and why ISPs would stop carrying it.
If you have no explanation for that, then what has any ISP got to lose
by just carrying IPv4? After all, it gets to everywhere and probably
will do so for a very long time into the future.

The whole world is not going to start using ipv6 overnight just because .au is out of ipv4, let alone turn off ipv4, especially when most the world still doesn't use ipv6, Australia would soon be an isolated country, in more ways than one.<BR>
