Getting IPv6 to the masses without giving them the ability to get their IPv6 problems
resolved seems not like a long-tail issue so much as a really poor choice of deployment
plans.

Just my $0.02.

Oh wait..

Hi, my name is Donn, and I’m speaking for… myself.

Irony is a cable provider, one of the largest, and earliest adopters of
IPv6, having ZERO IPv6 support available via phone, chat, or email. And
being pointed, by all of those contact methods, to a single website. A
static website. In 2015, when IPv4 is officially exhausted.

:sigh:



Tech support websites are long tail

Pragmatists are focused on getting ipv6 to the masses by default in
high traffic use cases.

Sighing about edge cases in the long tail  with ipv6 ... Not sure what you
expect.
