And, to an application developer, dual-stack is lots of extra hassles... so unless customers are making it a hard requirement (procurement guidelines), it's much easier to just not bother and stick to IPv4-only. (IPv6-only is similar to IPv4-only, but dual-stack, happy eyeballs, logging, filtering for v4 and v6, and all that is just extra nuisance) Gert Doering -- NetMaster -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...?
