in 2014? The people on this list were supposed to have had their networks ready by
2005 or earlier. World IPv6 Launch was 2012, for the content sources. The intermediate
networks - ISPs - should have been ready to carry the packets years before that.

BCP 177 IPv6 Support Required for All IP-Capable Nodes was published in 2012.

ISPs that haven't already got several years of experience in IPv6 side-by-side with
IPv4 aren't providing an IP service, and aren't RFC-compliant, and aren't even
following Best Practice.
