You can't popularize IPv6 by volitional action. It's the wrong way. The 
broadband operators bear much more expenses than transit operators (and 
there's no no contradiction here with your letter). And even when you 
understand that the broadband operators bear much more expenses you 
still call comunity to increase their expences for IPv4 resources??

In this case the only goal for for increasing expences for IPv4 
resources may be the removal of competitors: expenses will be raised for 
SMALL/MEDIUM but be decreased for the LARGE. It's not the way IPv6 
deployment should go. And many of members try to pay attention for this 
(but I think they have no chance to affect on this because we have (and 
had, and will have) a lobby of LAGRE's)
