24 September 2008 - A key goal of the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) at the OECD Ministerial Meeting in Seoul was raising awareness of IPv4 depletion and IPv6 deployment issues. As well as discussing the existing IP address distribution system, of which the RIRs are a key part, the event was an
18 September 2008 - The American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN), in cooperation with the Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis (CAIDA), is conducting a new survey to gather data regarding current and future use of IPv6. All organisations in the AfriNIC, APNIC, ARIN, LACNIC and RI

19 February 2008 Introduction On 4 February 2008 the IANA added IPv6 glue to the DNS root zone. This is a first quick look at measurement data for K-root, k.root-servers.net. It is based on data taken with the DNS Statistics Collector (DSC) tool, which we highly recommend. K-root Service Provis
The longer investment is deferred, the greater the risk of Internet growth slowing down and additional costs being incurred Danger of arrested development: The cost of migrating the Internet infrastructure to IPv6 will be significant, but the cost of not making this investment will end up being far higher.

5 June 2008 - Over recent months, the RIPE NCC has deployed IPv6 service at five additional k.root-servers.net locations. These are: BIX (Budapest) MIX (Milan) FICIX (Helsinki) CIXP (Geneva) AIX (Athens) This brings the total number of K-root instances available over IPv6 to seven, including the t
With almost 85% of IPV4 addresses already allocated or reserved, RIPE NCC, the network co-ordination centre for Europe, Middle East and parts of Central Asia, warns that IPv6 uptake is a must if we are to avoid 'arrested development' of Internet growth and innovation.
17 March 2008 - An IPv6 deployment panel discussion was held at the ICANN meeting in Lisbon on Sunday 25 March between 13:00 and 15:00 (UTC+1). The session focused on IPv6 deployment in the root DNS and ISP environments as well as the policy support needed for this. The panel consisted of Gert
11 December 2007 - The months of October and November 2007 set new records for the number of IPv6 allocations made in a single month by the RIPE NCC. 24 allocations were made to RIPE NCC members in October, a record immediately broken by the 31 allocations made in November. The previous peak was 19
