Hi,

Dual stack is where we need to go 'now', but we need to think about the future where we run an IPv6 only stack and stop 
thinking how to leverage, extend, expand and create ugly IPv4 solutions. IPv4 is done; it served its purpose well, thank you. We 
need a date where IPv4 is no longer routed on the Internet. I am suggesting 4/4/2024. Whatever the timeline, we need to agree on 
the date and drive toward a common goal for a better Internet.

My 2 Canadian cents :-)

Just as nobody is preventing you from going ipv6 only right now, I advocate against hindering anybody going ipv4 only for as long as they want/can.

You may not like the results, but that does not make a top down approach any better a choice.
