Funny discussion...afaik most OS has IPv6 stack and users can enable this
interface whenever necessary. But the limitation of IPv6 deployment until
now is lack of use cases even if IPv6 has lots of good features against
IPv4.

So what sorts of use cases are you guys considering with IPv6 mandatory in
IoTivity?
