I first heard about IPv6 on the front of a British computing magazine in 1997.

For an industry that is supposed to be so cutting edge and innovative and disruptive (urgh), we sure have been slow as shit in transitioning to IPv6.

Sky are certainly looking at a roll out:

BT are apparently going the opposite direction (and looking to create a lot of hurt) with CG-NAT: http://www.alphr.com/news/broadband/381646/customers-fume-as...

Comcast turned IPv6 (through DHCPv6-PD) on by default on for all of their residential customers a little while ago, have had it on-by-default in many cities for quite some time, and have had it opt-in for even longer.

Additionally, their core infrastructure has been IPv6 only for a very long time.
