TL;DR Work in progress, needed for VoIP project, deliverable once the crappy old CPE and CMTS are gone, and the issues with the always reliable Superhubs resolved.

The core network has been IPv6 for ages, the new Arris and Cisco kit customers are being connected to is good to go for IPv6, just CPE and OSS holding things up.

lets see if they can embarrass themselves like they did last year

They have ample IPv4 space and don't really care about IPv6 especially. They'll have IPv6 running when they need it.

Nerds can always use 3rd parties if they have IPv6-only resources they need to reach, or if they need the IPv6 addresses to maintain nerd-ons.

Why would VM miss the opportunity to advertise a "Free IPv6" upgrade followed by another 10% price hike? If it's gonna cost them don't think for a second we won't foot the bill.

Would be nice to have it all the same, geeks like me can dick about with it.
