Taken from the german 'puter zine "c't" current edition 14: There are not enough IPv4 adresses for Africa and Latin America already which is why they are assigning IPv6 only already. Now with the new east african internet cable this might lead to even more IPv6 users in potential OSM countries, but... all those IPv6 users cannot reach IPv4 only servers.
