IPv6 existed when I was a kid. It is not even remotely new.
I know, but it wasn't commonly used until IPv4 depletion became a more serious issue.
I must've said this at least 10 years ago: the more people move to IPv6, the more IPv4 are left free, so the less reason for moving to IPv6.
The "migration" could easily take several more decades.
We were talking about it when I was in undergrad.
Yeah, but for all we know you went to college thousands of years in the future, Time Lord.
That is why I think IPv6 is a non-starter. ;)
