        Denial is indeed impressive:

        v6 only is not the only option for residential customers
already used to functioning behind NAT.

In five years we should be just about ready to start deprecating IPv4, 
if not already beginning to do so.

        Considering it's taken us 15 years to get this far... I think
that's pretty optimistic.

style, for when the last v4 NLRI is removed from the DFZ?
