I beg to differ. Whilst short term objectives are integration and 
coexistence, the long term objectives are to get rid of IPv4 altogether. 
Coexistence introduces some weakness in the stability of the Internet, so 
the sooner we start the next phase, the better.
IMHO, once IPv6 is in wide use, IPv4 will wither away quite naturally, a bit 
like horsedrawn carriages did when the carriage with a mounted explosion 
engine became widespread.

Warm regards,

Olivier
