[ipv6-wg] Clear Guidance for Enterprises

Hi Wilhelm, All,

I have noticed that some people would be happy to cooperate to your idea of a paper for IPv6 in enterprises (me included :-)
Wonder if you have thought of any rough plan to start and organize the work.

Many thanks
Paolo

Hi Paolo,

thanks for your help with this project.

Lack of budget is of course a problem. But if the IT departments could at least quantify the budget, this would help. If they have no idea how to start the project, a budget eastimation is not possible.

Best,

Wilhelm
