We're some distance away from deprecating IPv4. Maybe 20 years, maybe 50 years. For a very long time, IPv6 and IPv4 will co-exist.

I know you wrote those figures to be provocative, Steve. :-)
I mean, 50 years? That's like saying "computers will still run on valves in 50 years' time" in 1950.

Of course this is a matter of appreciation, and frankly, does it really matter how long IPv4 will be around?

Let's worry at the future, not the past.

Kindest regards,

Olivier
