(Cross posting this to IPv6-OPS and IPV6 lists - started on the OPS list)

Does anyone else have additonal items that should be on this list? It will help with my thesis and we might best address these perceptions in a new draft as some are addressed in draft-ietf-v6ops-nap-02.txt.

I would be interested in (co-)writing  such a draft.

Subject: N reasons for not deploying ipv6

What might the other ones be, I still haven't seen a list.

There are lots of reasons, including but not limited to:

o  cost of deployment for network services providers
o lack of demand for content providers caused by lack of perceived benefit o continuing problems with supporting ipv6 in core networks (mostly due to legacy equipment and lack of interest in upgrading)
o  poor quality ipv6 global routing infrastructure
o  not enabled by default on Microsoft operating systems
o  poor AAA support on dialup / dsl aggregation / NAS devices
o  lack of multihoming for end-users who need this
o almost non-existent support for CPE routers outside some mainstream vendors
o  continued problems with AAAA lookups from some braindead resolvers

And of course, the primary reason: if the internet ain't broke, why do we need to fix it?
