We need one (or more) of the p2p vendors to support it. Then IPv6 traffic will explode in three months to ~10-15% of all internet traffic. Would make most p2p networks more efficient because almost all hosts would have publicly routable addresses. If we want to grow the demand for IPv6, it makes sense to focus on the application(s) that generate most of the bits.Well, let's be honest, name one good reason why you'd want IPv6 (given you have 4)? And, to be more on-topic, name one good reason why a network operator would want it? Especially given that, apart from the traditional bleeding edges (academic networks), no customers are asking for it.
