I've collected some similar documents in
http://www.sixxs.net/presentations/
Especially the one given by Steve Deering, which actually is a
masterclass
is very interresting and detailed, though one does need quite some
insight
into the material. If somebody queries about IPv6 I usually point them
to
that presentation. As for awareness, the talks given at AIAD could give
some information about deployment inside ISP's related to AMS-IX.
Check the NLNetlabs site at:
http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/ipv6/aiad/index.html presentations.html for the
presentations, but Ronald can tell you more about that ;)
Maybe a good start would be to have a central place where all this is
available, there are currently *many* sites having useful information
but these sites are all splattered around the internet. There was quite
a useful site http://hs247.com but unfortunatly due to time constraints
this site has not been updated for quite a while. It would be great
if there was a central repository where people could submit their IPv6
stories, links, presentations, tutorials etc. It would ensure that
people looking for information could at least find the information
they where looking for at a central place, without having to google
half of the internet. And no, I am not talking about yet another
RFC mirror ;) Any more thoughts about this?
I'm always willing to host such as this on the 6bone site.
