While an IPv6-only network is not attractive to most, we'd 
do well to consider running something close to that in the 
future.

Even though AfriNIC and LACNIC still have lots of IPv4 
address space for their respective regions, the rest of the 
world is running out, or has already (APNIC, for example, is 
finished).

Having all this IPv4 doesn't help when the rest of the world 
is under pressure to deploy and operate IPv6. We need to 
find a way to inter-operate with those folks.
