Margaret, I agree.  This should remain in the draft.
 
This example puts IPv6-only network infrastructure, with dual-stack nodes,
on the radar for the solution space, and that is important, whether it's
a military network or an Asian academic network.

I suspect there is some resistance because some people feel IPv6-only
infrastructure is too early to consider.  I would disagree.  For example,
the Chinese academic CERNET 2 network is IPv6-only, and is live now (but
I don't know whether the sites/universities are IPv6-only infrastructure,
but they're probably closer to doing it than any non-Asian academic sites).

We have to think global in the scoping and solution space.
