The EU has certainly not mandated any such thing. They burnt their fingers
badly with OSI mandates 15 years ago, and are unlikely to repeat that
mistake. There is substantial EU support for IPv6 deployment, but that
is far from being a mandate.

Correct, they have initiated the eEurope 2005 program that is "recommends"
deployment by 2005, with each country forming their own plan. It looks like
the UK and France are pushing to be first with several others in close
second (only Italy seems to be without a plan).
