100% agreed! Been whining about that here many times. I have been
trying to get IPv6 going for a long time, but the above stopped my
plans. One thing I mentioned recently, though, is we just got a
$BIGCUSTOMER and their requirement was we do IPv6. So keep your IPv6
deployment plans ready. In my case they said a 'we need it right
now' kind of thing. That could happen to anyone here.
How about just doing it and then asking for forgiveness later :-)?
That's what I did in 2005, but fair point, the network was only 2
routers big and in just one city :-).

I would be looking for a new job and it is a much larger network than 2
routers is a big city. :) Sabri Berisha was correct: "The true enemy
here is mid-level management that refuses to prioritize deployment of
IPv6. What we should be discussing is how best to approach that
problem. It's where ops and corporate politics overlap." What I always
heard when I bring it up and they don't want to talk about it was
"What's the business case?" They know there isn't one.
