Feds Endorse 'Go Slow' Approach on IPv6

Carolyn Duffy Marsan writes on NetworkWorld:

IPv6 advocates looking for the U.S. federal government to make a major financial commitment to the next-generation of the Internet’s main communications protocol will be disappointed with the findings of a new report from the Department of Commerce.

"Aggressive government action to accelerate the deployment of IPv6 by the private sector is not warranted at this time," according to the Commerce Department’s IPv6 Task Force, which consists of officials from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
