Why are we, in 2026, still talking about ipv6? It is time to give it up and start over. Yes, it is unlikely we can agree on an ipv4 successor. But at this point we should be able to agree ipv6 is not going to be it.
IPv6 is over 30 years old. The world has not embraced it. It isn’t going to. It is time to call it and try to figure out something that will work.
You do understand that one need not have a better idea to make that observation? The observation is self-evident and can exist in the world regardless of what we think about IPv6 or the feasibility of figuring out something people will want to use.
Getting defensive and playing “then you come up with something better”-games is not getting us anywhere. It is just part of the problem. It is unproductive.
30 years. Let’s not waste more time.
Are you suggesting we spend another 30 years beating a dead horse?
Yes, it started out slow. But from 2016 to 2026 we've gone from 10% to almost 50%.
In some countries, it is much higher. It would be a waste of time to deploy yet another standard.
Again, you have refused to answer what would make IPvBBORUD better?
