I get the feeling that there's a tendency among many organizations to
not do anything to get ready for IPv6 until they have to. I'm guessing
when the times comes that no more IPv4 addresses are available or
affordable, there's going to be a rush to change to IPv6 and a lot of
people are going to screw it up.

Sad part is most technical implementations are still crippled. Cisco
has put on events at the past several yearly "ipv6 congress" events,

"pure" ipv6 environment. I think last year was apple ios not
supporting dhcpv6 various other nuances to the default configurations
that were needed to work around client issues year after year.
Carrier technologies like mpls are still somewhat contingent on ipv4
even, everything else is mostly work-in-progress. Carrier-grade NAT
solutions are expensive and/or still fluid in terms of spec, so most
enterprises, especially around the US are like "we'll get to it when
we have to", and that means at the cost of buying v4 addresses to
*not* change. Ask a developer how to provide ipv6 services, and I bet
they'll look at you funny too as most haven't even gotten v4 yet.
All it's doing is creating a new ecosystem of supply and demand. Good
thing companies like godaddy have been hoarding them for years,
waiting for the gold rush to begin (like, now

with so many ipV6 addresses those should be like our social security
numbers. Everyone is assigned one.
