Re: IPv6 Deployment Panel at ICANN San Juan meeting

[Brian E Carpenter <brian.e.carpenter@gmail.com>]

Leo,

Can you explain here (v6ops) what is behind the very curious phrase
"deploying IPv6 on a network designed for IPv4"?

I just can't assign any logical meaning to that phrase. I could
understand "adding IPv6 support to an IPv4 network" but your phrase
is equivalent to "running wide-gauge trains on narrow-gauge track".

I don't want to quibble over wording but I wonder if there is some
deeper misunderstanding.
